DDC With I2S in and Out

I too would like to see I2S added to Gaia. I presume some generic switch would have detrimental affects for sound quality, we do all this optimization of interfaces, can't believe this wouldn't have some detrimental affect. On that subject, all the generic streaming devices I've tried were inferior to quality audiophile device.

I don’t want to give up on the Gaia when it can still be used for two sources. I’m sure the Laiv device is not in the same class, but I still want to run the new source through some kind of reclocker/galvanic isolator, so I’m willing to try the Laiv.

Please report back.  Thank you.
