I would recommend listening to an Audio Research Reference DAC9. Be aware it does not do dsd. I was really shocked when I first heard it and have yet to hear a better sounding DAC although I have had better in my system. It is extraordinarily musical without losing detail.
I also have a DAC that does DSD and my current thinking, especially with streaming, is the overall sound of your system is by far the most important determinant of the sound… second is the mastering, third is the format, and finally trailing behind is the connection type.
So, I listen to a a lot of different albums. Sometimes I am struck by how great an album sounds. So I look, thinking, that must be a high def recording… seldom is it… it is just a well recorded red book resolution stream. My digital leg sounds the same as my really good analog leg, so the same observations apply.
Now the point of my system is to be musical and natural, image really well, naturally reproduce great bass, and be detailed. It is not to be detailed at all costs… strip away the midrange and enhance the treble to enhance the ability to hear detail. In this context… which sounds like your aim, consider a ARC Ref 9. You can buy used to get well below $10K.
