Here's a list of a bit more than three.

Also check out the Cheap and Cheerful circle and the Discless circle, both have a zillion threads on various DACs.  There are so many options it may help if you set a price range and options needed such as USB, 24/96 or 24/192, extra inputs, volume control, etc.

But to address your post directly, Grant Fidelity 11, DacMagic, Maverick.

It depends on your use and your budget etc...there are indeed MANY dacs out there.
