Looking to experiment with any uptick in sound quality by converting my Baetis Prodigy 2 computer USB output along with my UltraRendu USB output to i2s for the i2s input on my LAiV Harmony DAC. Any recommendations as clear-cut winners or are these DDC similar in results?
 
I can only confirm that a Singxer SU-6 sounds very good into my Meridian DSP9 active speakers. 6 Moons made it part of their system a while ago while Hans B also made his recommendation two years ago (and still in use). Head-Fi.org people are busy modifying it, so maybe we'll see a new, even better version soon.

Yea, am considering that one along with the Matrix X-3, Denafrips IRIS 12 and Sonore Ultra Digital...just researching as to which one is most desirable...

Since you already have the LAiV DAC, perhaps their own DDC might prove to be a synergistic match: https://www.laiv.audio/product-page/harmony-uddc-deposit

I do not think the Sonore Ultra Digital is available any longer.
