Amir I'm surprised you still want to hear recommendations
You could try a Neoteck dac (there is a variant that purportedly decodes audio up to 192Khz), though I saw you already planned to test prozor's cheap dac. The thing with Neoteck is that its amplifier seems to have some pretty decent specs and an audio engineer who reviewed it said that it used some pretty high quality components (from texas instruments I believe). I could double check.
Given that their amp seems pretty decent (though it strangely lacks a gain switch), I have more confidence in the quality of their dac than Prozor's dac or linkfor's dac. Definitely wouldn't recommend Linkfor. They copy-pasted neoteck's headphone amplifier description to be used with their own amp, and when I ordered said amp all I got was lithium batteries (though shipping fulfillment was by amazon so wasn't necessarily Linkfor's fault). Neoteck is also quite good in terms of providing quality customer service, judging by amazon reviews and the many comments on amazon indicating they have decently long warranties for their products and will usually replace models reported to be defective.
I'd have to double check but I can't recall Neoteck providing SNR or THD +N measurements for its dacs, which is discouraging/disappointing.
