Yeah, the Audiophilleo's price is pretty outrageous when I've only seen people describe it as a "slight improvement" from the digital interface. I wish someone would compare them using the isolator and hex inverter on the digital interface, since I bet they're nearly identical in performance. For less money than the AP2 I got DI+PSU+Isolator+74VHC04+Furutech GT2+Black Cat Veloce and I can sell the cables for a good chunk of change if I upgrade.
yes I have tried the isolator, doesn't fix the problem.

The DI has its flaw but it is a good design given its price. Through it I got better sound from my Yamaha DVD-S1800 player so I am satisfied. I once was tempted to buy the Audiophilleo 2, but just kind of hard to justify the 3 x cost, for the the possible level of further improvement. That is after I have improved the DI's sound by using the 74AHC04 chip.
