USB/SPDIF converter and DAC combinations


I am currently using M2Tech Hiface with PS Audio DL 3. Will be looking to upgrade. Seeking opinions on the Bel Canto devices, Wired4Sound DACs, Audiophelio converter. What makes for a great combination and is this a better approach than USB conversion within the newer DACs? This question is asked within the context of a 15K-17K system retail. Thanks in advance for your replies.

IFi Audio a division or Abbington Music Research has just released the ILink. It is a USB/SPDIF coax and optical converter. The product is very new, but the whole Ifi line is getting great reviews and I'm sure the iLink will follow suit.
Don't let the prices fool you into thinking that they are cheep. Every piece performs well above it's price point.
I have the iPhono and couldn't be happier.
