I was thinking about the same thing. I guess it all depends on what you want to achieve. If all you want is a DAC/AMP for headphone use from your PC. than the E10K is probably a better/cleaner solution. My situation is a bit different. I want something that will give better sound quality to my 5.1 speaker setup (vs the onboard Realtek chip) and serve as an headphone amp at the same time (I'm out of slot on my PC for an onboard sound card and the mobo does not have any digital output available so an external USB DAC is the only option). Also, I figured that since I already have a E11K. If I don't like the sound from the U7 headphone amp, I can always switch that to line-out and connect through my E11K.
