If I had two DAs and one was better, I would definitely use the better one for feeding the HW unit ...

Yes, because at the moment of processing the mix through an analogue gear, you are left at the mercy of your DA AD chain. If these gates are not of supreme quality, you lose more than you gain. What you hear, will come and go (and should be OK unless the second DA is too inferior), but what passes through the DA AD channels will remain forever thereafter.
