I also vote for the QB-9.
I've listened to the Gungnir Multibit on multiple occasions and own the QB-9 DSD. The Ayre sounds more polished and refined IMHO. I've also noticed that I don't need any additional reclockers / etc. in the playback chain between the computer and the DAC to get the best sound.
Hope this helps!
