RE: comparing I2S vs. AES3 with Gustard U12+X12

I don't know how much merit there is to the argument but at least one manufacturer feels the need to add isolation on the I2S on their version of xmos USB to I2S.

Though I'm wondering if the goal is removing the nonideal electrical response of a poorly laid out i2s bus, then putting the isolation physically closer to the dac end of the cable rather than the processor end of the cable would be more optimal in dealing with emi problems related to the i2s cable and board traces electrical lengths and loop areas.
