What DAC should I buy?

I am in the process of turning my home theater into a dedicated 2 channel system. I am selling my Lexicon DC1 and negotiating on a Sonic Frontiers Line 1 preamp. I want an external DA converter I can use with my Monarchy Jitter box, and would like the DA converter to decode HDCD signals. I want to spend less than $1K (Used). Please recommend some DACs.

Thanks.

The best DAC in the price/performance parameter that I have heard is the Bel Canto DAC2. It is really amazing sonically. It is also quite inexpensive and comes in a very small package.

I personally use the Audio Aero Capitole 24/192 MkI and love it. If I bought a second system, I would probably use the Bel Canto DAC2.

Hope this helps
