I'm damn iffy on I2S running more than centimeters along PCB traces. It's not designed for long runs of cable at all.
And DIR9001 is a terrific, low jitter receiver, mind you. If I wasn't lazy and a procrastinator, I would have put my USB/SPDIF converter inside of the DAC19 and run a short I2S wire to replace 2706's connection already, ahaha. I probably will not too long from now, though, as that thing is made for that.

Ultimately, to each his own, and I'm not going to recommend to someone a solution requiring DIY work involving circuitry, unless he's interested (unlikely).

I2S upgrade available by nearly every Audio GD dealer. Right good CAT7 cable under 0.25 m long and there are no problems at all. The i2s was designed before cat6 and cat7 was developed.
