Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer


When streaming from a computer I am wondering about improvements one might  get from use of this DDC between computer and DAC.  Anyone with experience using this unit this way? Thanks in advance.

I use with Windows PC and it is a bit annoying. Occasionally, when PC sleeps, it loses connection to Iris when it wakes up. I have to disconnect and reconnect USB cable. Sound wise I can hear minor improvement over plain connection to Terminator. I suspect this is less to do with reclock and more with isolation of Terminator from USB noise.

@pegolea - full blown PC is way more convenient. If you don't use desktop then streamer is better. I personally sit at my desktop with 34" screen. It is easier to control Tidal right here, why would I need to fish up my phone and use app on a small screen?
