Konnekt or AudioFire? Best D/A?

I need some help deciding between an Audiofire 2/4 or a Konnekt 8.

I own a Mytek A/D and hamptone JFET preamp so I'm really interested in the quality of the D/A for monitoring and reamping and I'm also interested in stability. I know the original konnekt drivers had problems but they seem to have come a long way since 06.

I hope to use the interface on a laptop but the main application will be my desktop.

Any recommendations?

    From what I've seen, the specs seem very close with Echo holding a slight lead; I'd have more confidence in Echo's driver.

    Here's my results for testing the AudioFire8

    I will have a Konnekt 8 and a Konnekt 24D on ebay very soon at a nice price.
