What is the latest greatest USB add on device?

I have been out of the USB arena for a while. Last I remembered there was an Uptone Regen, iFi, Intonia, Mutec, and the Disrupter.
I still own the Disrupter and I just tried it again and it did seem to improve the USB signal.
Is there any new USB devices that I should consider? It would be used between a Bryston BDP-2 USB player and a PS Audio Direst Stream Dac.

So I just received the ISO Regen. It was very cold out of the box from shipping and was just so-so sounding. Later on last night it seemed to open up and I thought it sounded pretty good.
I also have on order the SOtM txUSB ultra the "Special Edition" along with a couple Regen LPS 1.2. I also have the Curious USB cables.

So we shall see how all this comes together. I am expecting great things...

Please forgive my terrible spelling as I was rushing to get out of the house and my typing fingers were all over the place. Once again sorry!!!
Hi Ozzy yes the lan rover send the signal from box to box but if like me your PC and your amp or preamo are close together then you will only need inches of cable. I will stess tough that Ps Audio say that you can use a mediocre cable from Pc to sending device but I will counter that by saying that two usb cables of the same quality give a marked improvement so I am using Telurium Ultra silver and once they are broken it they give a stunning sound . Just a little bit of patience is all that's needed, I stuck the device through my PC with internet radio playing continuously and after a fornight  the sound just seemed to explode out of my phones, I now love it.
My box of tricks is the PS Audio Lan Rover between my PC and my PS Audio Direct Stream DAC and have found a big improvement compared to USB straight from PC to DAC. I also have found that 2 high quality USB cords give a much better sound.
jaybe,

I have read some good things about the SoTM tX USB. Did you get the Master Clock option? Where did you purchase yours?

I bet it does.  Nice stuff for sure. Much more costly for sure.  Love the SoTM line.

Thanks radiomanjh,

I found a used ISO Regen on the gon and just bought it. I am going to wait to upgrade to any $$$ power supply until I asses the usefulness of the ISO Regen.
Anyone have experience with the ISO Regen?

well I'm sure its not the latest or greatest but I've been using a Schiit Bifrost 4490 USB DAC with a Schiit Wyrd USB regenerator streaming Spotify premium from my MacBook Air and I am pretty satisfied with it. Been in this hobby for 40 + yrs. and have tried a lot of systems along the long and winding road and am just enjoying the music these days.  the only item I may add is the Schiit Eitr USB to SPDIF converter.......hmm.
Thanks grannyring for your comments. I was beginning to think that no one is using USB .
Has anyone tried the newer version of the Regen called the ISO Regen?

Love the IFi Micro USB 3 with a good linear power supply for it. Nice improvement in my rig. Less noise and greatly reduced digital artifacts. Music flows more naturally with improved musicality. Also need a couple of good USB cables with it.
