Speakers or DAC what to upgrade next (1k budget)

I'm thinking of what my next move should be as far as putting my new basic rig together, besides the seemingly endless computer parts. right now I'm rocking an Avid eleven, and Focusrite scarlett solo interfaces, and Alesis monitor one speakers, with an avantone on the shortlist, and a Bose home theater, and various Bluetooth and computer speakers.

WhichPCI audio card for Mytek Stereo96 DAC ?

I have purchased Mytek Stereo96 DAC, and connected it to my MOTU UltraLite mk3 Hybrid .
I was totally blown away by the improvement this little Mytek DAC gave in sound quality .
But the dealer says that ít's much better to combine Mytek with a PCI audio card . He recommended RME HDSP 9632 .
Is that a good choice ?
Does it exist any better alernative ?

Using Apogee AD-16x/miniDAC as main interface

Hello,

I'm curious to know if anyone has experience in using the Apogee AD-16x as their main interface (with the firewire expansion card, of course). I see a lot of reference in using it in conjunction with an HD setup to replace the conversion, but never as a standalone unit, which it appears to have the capability of.

I plan on running it with my Soundcraft Ghost board...
