Best DAC for Sonos

I was thinking of purchasing either a: PS Audio Link iii, Benchmark DAC1, Cambridge DACMagic or Musical Fedility V-DAC. Does anyone have thoughts on what might be the best to go between my Sonos and Krell preamp? Are there others that might be better?

Thanks in advance.

I have 3 sonos zp80s. running 2 through Apogee MiniDacs, and 1 through a BelCanto Dac2. All sound great, and I picked the Apogee over the Benchmark head to head. Great Dac. It's typically used and well liked by audio engineers. Costs less than 1k.

Agree. Wyred4sound dac1 with upgraded caps. Real nice.

Note, before upgrading to a more expensive sonos mod to reduce jitter, you may prefer to instead send a bit of money a logitech touch and play hires files instead. Sonos doesn't allow for it.

Bryston is a good match as well that dac is a layed back which complments the zp90.
