Hello, I read almoust all threads ragarding dacs I'm interested in, but still can't decide. My sound card(creative sound blaster live value) is very outdated and is not capable of bit-perfect playback. I got impression that external dac is way better than internal SC, thats why I'm considering usb dac. My budget is about 350$. So my question is which one should be better option: emu 0404usb (210$ or 160eur) or musiland md-10(I don't know what the price could be including shipping(Lithuania), but I guess ~350$). I chose those, because they have integrated headphone amplif. Is the sound quality very different from those dacs?
Or should it be better option to by x-fi extreme music and add zhaolu 2.5(I don't consider to mod) ?
I have Ultrasones 2200ule and listen to various kinds of music, except the metal, hard rock, rap etc. Don't play games either, and don't intend to do any records

I don't have enough dispensible cash to get each of these right now to compare. Has anyone listened to both?
