Would the Asus Xonar DG give me the best of sound of my ATH-M50? 

The Asus Xonar DG would give the best sound for it's price ($14-$24).

The Asus Xonar DG is usually better then what comes built into a motherboard.

I like recommending the Xonar DG (I own two).

The Fiio E10 USB-DAC-Headphone amp. might improve it a little better then the DG, but it's $80.

So the DG is the best sound, for the price.

The M50 may be slightly better in some respects, but I prefer the sound signature of the K240. The K240 focuses on warm midrange, with punchy bass. It's a "fun" sound signature. The M50 has unremarkable mids and highs, with a slighly bloated bass that sometimes overwhelms the mids.

The AKG is more comfortable than the M50, which is something many people underestimate.
