So much for being a home only system ey? Just teasing. FWIW, even on an iPhone with AAC it sounds muy bueno. Actually much better than several DACs I've had that use USB only.
There's a shed load of info online -but there's many considerations. Budget, wireless/not wireless, what kind of machine will be driving it and so on. Give us what you're using and we can make suggestions.
A good starting point for a proper desktop DAC is the Schiit Modi -but if you're gonna be using it out and about, one of FiiO or Dragonfly's USB options are good. Chord also make the Mojo which is nice, but a bit bulky nowadays, expensive, has a short-ish battery life and gets very hot. BUT it does sound very nice.

What’s the budget? You’ll find my setup a page or 2 back and some slightly unedifying debate about a Bluetooth system if you don’t want the gadget tethered to your phone, particularly good if you’re on an android device that supports aptX.
