Do you know of a dac taking both FW and USB?
Nope. That's why I asked. From your comments, I inferred that perhaps you were able to directly compare USB Async. apples & Fire Wire apples. I have not been able to do so.
I'm still liking the USB QB-9, with PM upsampling 44.1 to 176.4 & polarity selection per cut, plus all the usual tweaks to the max.
Never heard it bettered at any voicing site I've visited to date. I'm sure I will eventually run into a superior set-up, but I've been unusually satisfied with this choice.
I think it's cool that Computer Audio has lots of adherents who get great results with very different techniques.
Best regards,
