I'm building my rig, and have have the la figaro coming in soon.  Just ordered it.  So far Liuyi at yuking09.com has been very helpful even with my goofups in ordering.  I'm thinking of an HRT Music Streamer II.  My current problem is with my Xonar D2 which has slight computer noises when I move my mouse or when the computer starts working hard I'd say it's slight whistling.  I've tried grounding the system but haven't fixed it.  I'm looking for an external DAC with USB and no AMP as I already have the la figaro 339 on the way.  Figure moving away from an internal sound card to the DAC will show results. 
 
My current setup is 24/192 with the xonar d2, is it possible that 24/92 would sound better with a proper DAC or am I looking for other stats to decide?

Went ahead and bought the HRT Music Streamer II+, seems to run great but once in a while switching songs in foobar2000 I'll get static, I think it has to do with drivers but I'm still looking into it.
