I would speak to those folks that had the mod done and get their feedback. Very difficult on this forum to answer your question. A DAC vs a Mod has so many sides to it, I would have to know more about what you are ultimately trying to do.
As far as the DAC situation goes, get a money back guarantee if possible and try at least 3 different DACs before deciding. Its the best way to live with yourself since its ultimately your decision. In a Mod situation, it will be difficult but you should ask anyway.
