DAC in player vs DAC in computer.

I have a DTI that improved the sound of almost any DAC, but it has no connection for a computer. Is there such a device for the computer, a reclocking device.

What does it take to get the best sound out of the computer. Since I'm computer illiterate you'll have to really break it down.

According to a "Geek" I know, no such device exists.

Yes, an Off-Ramp 5 does this. USB in and lots of digital outputs.

What's the best computer for an audiophile. Does one computer have a better master clock than another?

Orpheus - There are no "good" master clocks in computers, or sound cards for that matter.

This is the point I'm trying to make. The master clock should be outside of the computer, in another chassis with a good power source etc.. This is the ONLY means to low jitter playback.

This is what is happening in Async USB interfaces and Squeezebox Touch. They have the master clock. The computer is the slave.
