After several years finally what looks like a definite raise in the performance bar:
Stereophile: ESS Sabre Reference Audio DAC
The 134 dB SNR and -118 dB THD are nice, but there's more interesting things in the white paper:

Too bad it looks like there's no way to bypass the digital filter so I can feed it data I oversampled in my DSP, though it looks like the built-in filter is very good.
Should be easy for DIY as well, due to the simple interface.
