What is the best DAC under $2000 and why?

I'm wondering if a true bargin of a DAC is out there waiting. I have heard the Benchmark DAC is the best out there under $2000. What do you think?

The MHDT DACs, all of them, are stellar bargains (and all best the Benchmark), and the Wavelength Brick is superb as well. I have owned the Benchmark, two MHDT DACs, and all three Wavelength DACs.
