Wrong way! And common mistake. When you want to keep jitter as low as
possible, you better to take care of it from the very beginning, at the
source.
It's true for S/PDIF, and obvious for I2S, where two of the wires are
dedicated to clocking (bitclock and wordclock). In all cases, the DAC
has to be slaved to incoming data flow. 
Call it as you like, reclock, de-jitter, when performed at the DAC end,
is no more than a band aid: better to prevent than to care.
