Setup
HD600's --->Schiit Asgard ----> Udac2 ------->PC
 
I have had this setup for about a year now, and am looking to upgrade my source.
 
     Anyone with experience in the two would a Schiit Bitfrost be a worthwhile upgrade over the udac2? I have heard decent reviews for the udac but i feel like its holding my headphones/amp back a bit. Or would my money be better spent on upgraded headphone cables(probably toxics or cardas)/Higher end amp.
 
 
edit: Got answers on source cables thanks guys.

Also my Udac is connected to my Asgard through some cheapo RCA cables i got from an old portable dvd player i know in terms of high end cables the diminishing returns are pretty high but would something like a set of Dimarzio RCA cables benefit over a pair of 5$ cables. Final question my pc has an optical output so if i were to get the Bifrost is optical better than a coax/usb connection?

Schiit rates, Coaxial>Optical>USB
