Tried DSD?
Why is it that some feel the need to shut up those that have a differing opinion? I would hope that this forum would be a source of information, not just affirmations. If you don’t agree; either explain why or move on. The very first thing that ap...

Best DAC
A few thoughts: if you have the space; you might consider using  some of the funds towards bigger maggies. Also, when was the Threshold S500 last recapped? Depending on the DAC you choose; you might find the SP6 superfluous.

@hifi28, fitter468’s point about drivers are spot on. But, whether the 3.5’s or the 3.6’s are better comes down to individual preferences. I think if you read through this thread, you’ll find preferences pretty evenly divided for either one. 
Where are the cheap home streamers?

I would imagine that Jafant’s suggested satin black might be particularly handsome. 
Connecting a DAC directly to an amp?
