For Gustard R26...which bang for the buck: DDC or LHY OCK clock?

I've been enjoying this dac for several months now. I have tried USB and COAX and now I2S.

There is a noticeable improvement in each of these inputs. I have read many of the discussions here regarding both DDC and external clocks. I am wondering which of these would give more bang for the buck. The Gustard goes very well with my tube amps.

I am considering the LHY OCK 1 or 2 for clocks and undecided for the DDC.

I think the Musician Audio Pisces is a good value and worth a look.

Looks there are all sold out on Amazon for the time being.

I will explore it in the meantime. Thanks for the tip.
