Here are both models but the USB version is in your price range. not sure why the links dont LINK, but you can cut and paste. They are sold on EBAY.

The DT 880s are notorious for being too bright. I say get the D5000s and then worry about a dac later. The low impedance on the Denons should make them easy to drive from a portable or a sound card or headphone out on a receiver.

Headamp Pico, 500 ballons and it sounds just as nice as a Benchmark Dac 1.

Its a one man show, his name is Justin, send him an E-mail, he will explain anything you want to know. Be patient though, he is extremely busy.

Works great with ASIO4ALL. Get the Signature model for 100 over the cost of the DA100 from www.HotRodAudioMods.com. http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/clt.pl?dgtlconv&1219023333 Sounds amazing. Warm, Punchy, lots of impact, lots of detail without being sterile and overly bright. Smooooooth and detailed and lots of impact! DA100 Signature!
