I'm looking for the best USB DAC to use with a Gilmore Lite w/ Grado MS-2i and Sennheiser HD-580s. My new laptop doesn't have an optical spdif output so USB seems like my best option. I'd like to spend $200 max. So far the Firestone Fubar II looks like the best option. Anyone else have any opinions on a good USB DAC?

I've used the Fubar II for several months and am very happy with it.  It's a great deal for the money.  I don't hear much difference moving up to the $400 range in DACs from the Fubar.
