I would go for the Audioengine D1, I currently own the CEntrance Dacport which is very good but overpriced in my opnion, and tried the Furutech ADL GT40. Finally decided to go for the D1, and it sounds fantastic.

You dug up an thread that is almost 18 months old ???  As HF necros go, that's fairly mild, but I still wonder how you stumbled on a thread this old. So much has changed since the OP posted this, and many of the earlier recommendations now seem painfully out of date.
