Hi,

Just wondering what are other options one can get with USB Audio DAC that has native support for 24/96 in the $100 range?

I can think of one that I owned, the Musiland 02US supports 24/192 around that price range

There is zero benefit in worrying about 24/96 in a cheap DAC. Any improvements gained in playing 24/96 files would be vastly overshadowed by the distortion in such a cheap product.

The 2009 ZERO DAC has a USB interface, and can be picked up for that price range. Plus, if you get a few extra dollars, you can always mod/upgrade with some OPA627's or what not. Also, Jolida has a USB powered mini-dac (The "Glass," I think) which runs 99$USD new.

 

Unfortunately, not all of us have the ability to shell out grips of money for our sound setup, or simply don't feel like it. Circumstantially, the market is a tad flooded with entry-level products. Just be sure to do your homework.
