MSB select II vs all dacs ?

The Rockna is a very good sounding dac.  I now use the Aqua Formula xHD at $17K and love it. SO many good DAC's now. I actually never hear about a "bad" sounding dac.

Over the last year I personally have come to the conclusion in my system(s) that the server, the network prior to the server AND vibration control all are more important to me vs. what DAC is used.

Again, just my opinion from my experiences, doesn't mean anything to someone else in their rooms, systems, ears etc.

Any other dacs that can compete at rockna level in this price segment?

I ALWAYS hear great things about the Schitt Yddrasil at $2499.  I've never heard it and have now idea but even at it's price point it is worth investigating.  I think the Yggy is more different than say the Rockna vs one being better than the other.

I've dealt with Worldwidewholesales in a transaction, Bob Neil is not an honest fair guy to deal with. He flat out doesn't listen to the buyer needs, could care less what you have in your system, could care less about anything but talking about himself. He tells you what will sound best, because he's A/B tested XYZ amount of brands, he knows more than you. To the new audiophile this tactic likely works, or to the person looking for a deal, since he undercuts his own dealers all the time. Ask Bob at Rhapsody about him, he dumped Worldwidewhoesales, even though he loved Rockna. That should tell you alot.

 The attitude he displays here, is the same EXACT attitude he displays in a business transaction, so caveat emptor when dealing with him. Any positive feedback he likes to parrot having is a direct result of what I said earlier. Undercutting his own dealers, and selling to those only looking for a quick deal, not the right piece of equipment. Don't expect someone who will listen to your needs when dealing direct with Bob.

My experience with Bob - worldwidewholesales is very similar to yours. He reminds of used car salesman back in 90’s, just like them he would make up lies or say anything in order to close a deal to his advantage.
