HDMI cables will add up latency (because of the TV/monitor processing),
some ms but perceptible if you're recording a live performance and
monitoring it.
One DAC per speaker may cause time drift problems.
The best solution is use a high-quality external soundcard with studio
monitors. onboard soundcards tend to have sub-par components that add up
noise and have less-than-optimal frequency response. Even a Behringer
UCA222 is better than the general onboard DACs.

I am imagining this setup:
Plug a USB or HDMI cable into my computer.
Plug the other end into a hub.
5 speakers and a subwoofer all plug into the hub.
Plug the hub into a AC power outlet.
So there would still be one DAC, and it would be in the hub. Is a DAC
really
that expensive? Why can't they be
everywhere?

I don't understand why speakers are using the analog output cable for
sound. How about, use a digital interface like HDMI or USB?
someone you need to convert from digital to analog. do you want one DAC
per speaker when you could have one DAC per computer?
