Has anybody got one....?

I am looking to make a few changes to my PC playback. Its a bit all over the place at the moment.
I currently output from whatever Media player I am using, but mainly Wavelab in ASIO, to an M-Audio Firewire 410...which converts the signals to SPDIF and then feeds that to a Musical Fidelity X-Dac V3 and then onto an X-Cans V3, both on a V3 PSU.
This sounds pretty good but lots of cables and cases... so would the Benchmark fed by USB and using its onboard headphone amp be an improvement sonically.
I also like the idea of the balanced output, I could then chuck a feed to my main Hi Fi which I don't do on my current set up. Might finally be able to integrate all sources.
I could flog off the MF stuff and pretty much cover the cost of the new unit.... in an ideal world.
Anybody have any ideas on this, better, worse or no idea....

Thanks,
K
