Innuos - New Re-Clocker

I have a question about the re-clocker; So pretty much all modern DACs are async, where the DAC clocks data at its own rate from the USB host (as opposed to receiving bursts of data at whatever rate the HOST sends them);

When the reclocker was in the loop, async DACs still appeared as async to either the Aurender, windows PC, or InnuOs zen (as if the re-clocker was totally not there at all); I assume it's passing back the USB enumeration credentials back to the main USB HOST; 

So I guess what I have a question about is the role of the expensive oven controlled 3 parts per billion accuracy oscillator in the phoenix; I assume this clock pulls data from the HOST (music server), but the attached DAC is still operating in asycn mode pulling data according to its own clock-- unless the re-clocker re-configures the operating mode of the USB dac such that the re-clocker pushes data. 

Can someone please pipe in that has a clear understanding of what is going on here? TIA!

Some of it has to do with the DAC but in asynchronous mode it’s more of a push- pull. I am only a bit familiar with the DAC I have the Benchmark DAC3B it will follow sample rate changes. So in this case it would follow the Phoenix but only until it reaches the buffer, once there the DAC3B master clock takes it to send to the conversion subsystem it is the second asynchronous transfer that eliminates jitter in the transfer from USB to the conversion subsystem. In my case the Phoenix is just a worthless extra component reclocking data from the streamer to simply be reclocked by the Benchmark, other DACs might do it different. 

whelp the internet sure is a dandy thing

looks like that’s exactly what Innuos did; They pulled the USB signal off the PC motherboard and piped it over to the reclocker;

~14K is a lot of scratch for power supplies, a small form factor computer, ssd's, teac optical drive, and spiffy cases; SHEESH!

I'm sorry, I'm sure it is covered, but the PhoenixUSB is USB in as well as USB out?

Am I understanding that correctly??

the Phoenix device from InnuOs is a USB reclocker; So yes, USB in and out; No other interface. No DAC.
When it is in the path, the only thing the HOST registers is the enumerated DAC;
