I know it's a minority view but I along with many others find that the sq of a CD transport exceeds that of the digital transports you're contemplating. I'm using a Cambridge CXC CD transport and it's amazingly good. For all other digital sources I use the hdmi output of an SSD netbook (but any computer with hdmi would do) going into a $20 hdmi de-embedder with optical and coax digital output. Kanex is the brand I use. The resulting sq is better than using the computer's USB output.
