In that price range, the HRT Streamer 2+ (asynch USB in, RCA analog out) works very well for me, & you will have $ left over for better i/cs or speaker wire. There are others that are highly recommended; not sure which have asynch USB input.
Best DAC for $500
Just starting assembling my HIFI system.
Speakers - Snell Type D's - Biwired
Amp - Sunfire 2 Channel
Pre Amp - Parasound
Almost all of my music, 20,000 plus songs, is on my PC. Listen to my music either via I Tunes or Windows Media Player.PC does NOT have an upgraded sound card.
Very diverse music listening, from Rap, to classical, to metal.
Trying to determine if my best move is an external DAC,and if so the best for my current set up. Or an upgrade at sound card.
Help appreciated
