Improving the front end of my system has been on my radar too. I run a reasonably quiet gaming pc > Live Dirac>sotm tx-usbexp>W4S RUR>DAC-2>LM508IA>Tekton DI's
A filtered outlet and usb card cleaned things up well. Live Dirac has always been the game changer in my system. The focus, imaging and detail is amazing, with amps retaining their unique characteristics.
You've got to choose between Live Dirac and MQA as the RC digital filter puts the kibosh on the MQA decoding.
I was able to run a free trial. Be prepared to spend the money as you may not want to be without it once you've drank the "kool-aid"
