I like my CEntrance DacPort quite a bit. I think it may stay around for a while, at least as much as any of my gear does. I had the DacPort LX for a month previous to the DacPort, and just decided I'd like the class A amp built in (Cudos to CEntrance, they traded up for the difference in price after a month!). Both have very nice detail, clarity and both play 24/96K natively. They compare well to my past DAC's (from memory only, so take it with a grain of salt - shortness of audio memory and all...) Past dacs - DacMagic, headroom UDA, Pico DAC/Amp, blah, blah blah, awww shoot, I'm sounding like a showoff (not really, I just trade gear around a fair amount for fun). Anyway, the DacPorts are nice, but they are a bit pricey, possibly overpriced. They are pretty well reviewed here at head-fi. I also saw a post earlier about "ripe for the Apogee Duet." The (old) Duet is a heck of a cool device, great dac, totally mac-centric, and about $300 - $350 used.
