i2s eliminates one weakness of s/pdif, the biphase clock recovery, but
that is not the only source of jitter. Unless you get the clock very
close to the DAC, and without going through a cable and connectors, it
is not going to be a huge overall improvement. Why don't you put the
oscillator in the DAC, and use a word clock to sync the SB?
