Bluefire, I wouldn't recommend USB out to an MHDT DAC. They're fairly infamous for having very lousy USB>S/PDIF conversion. Go coax/optical out to it if possible, or look for something else.

I'd agree, get the AV-710 then go digital out of it. big boost from USB

Oh mang! See if he could spring for a prelude (or other soundcard with dig out) so as to go dig coax out to the paradisea+ instead of usb; it's quite a bit better.

I tried the USB for an afternoon and quickly went back to the digital out of my prelude. Much fuller, wider sound.

EDIT: OO.. just saw Namrac's post. What he said!

What is bad about Bose?

This is so I know for future reference

They make ok, but massively overpriced, products, and market themselves as the best thing in audio, when they're just low-grade consumer products with high prices.

It's almost like young Red Riding Hood(tm) asking what's wrong with The Wolf.
