PC/stereo setup and/or cable question


My PC resides approximately 30 feet from my stereo setup. I currently run a 30' USB repeater cable from my PC to my Chord DAC. The 30' cable is not ideal, and there are no good options for upgraded USB cables in that length.

I'm trying to find out if I can use an ethernet cable, convert to USB near the DAC, and use a short USB into the DAC.
OR, if there's another option I could use to achieve using a short USB cable.

My setup is as follows: NAS>ehternet cable>PC>USB cable>DAC>interconnects>amp.

I tried a Bluesound streamer, but wasn't a fan of the sound.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

We have bern working with servers for years and if you have never heard a dedicated server then you have never heard how good digital can sound 

A nodee is a great starter piece but unlesd you are running usb you have not heard what is possibile 
Only usb or ethernet allows true high res playback also roon servers allow for upconvarsion or transcoding of pcm to dsd you have never heard your dac

The facinating thing is just how much a streamercan sound different from one another

I’m researching all of these suggestions, but this is all new to me. Dave and Troy- I’m not sure I understand what you’re suggesting. Thanks all. Still open to any suggestions. 
I'm looking at the Allo USBridge, but the terminology is a bit too technical for me.
Would I run it like this: NAS>ehternet cable>PC>ethernet cable>USBridge>USB cable>DAC

I run Jriver, so I think my PC needs to be in the mix.

Would I run it like this: NAS>ehternet cable>PC>ethernet cable>USBridge>USB cable>DAC

It should be
 NAS > router
 PC > router
 USBridge > router               
USBridge >USB DAC 

Yes. I neglected to add the router. Can anyone attest to the sound quality of the USBridge?
i have a pretty transparent system. And the whole goal of this is the hope of a bit of sound quality improvement from replacing the 30’ USB.
