Agreed with @GoodEnoughGear. While the DAC2541 did not work well with my system, I found its USB to sound superb, and did not seem to lose much discernable performance when playing from my laptop vs Pi2AES via AES.
I have a Gungnir MB A2 as well, but pre Unison. I don't use the USB on it so I have not sent it in for the upgrade, but Unison is supposedly much better than the gen5 cards. My BF2 has Unison and I do use the USB on it. Sounds great to me, but I have no reference to compare with.
It is unfortunate that unlike Yggdrasil and BF1, you can't just swap USB cards yourself. Gungnir has to go back to the mothership for a firmware flash as well, but I hear the turnaround time is pretty quick.
