First let me apologize for not having electrical engineering credentials... so please feel free to dismiss this response with extreme prejudice... but... the chips used for the conversion process have no where near as much influence on the overall sound of the unit as the analog electronics [including but not limited to the "aliasing filter"] and the stability [or lack of stability] of the clock.

Many of these things use the same chip sets with radically different tonal textures as a result.

Best of luck with your search.
