What have you heard about DSA quality? They've had a recall on some FALs (less than a year of production), and some minor issues here and there, but on the whole are quite good. I own one of their 16" ZM4 uppers with a nitrided barrel, and also a couple of their FALs, so I have some basis to go on. I wouldn't hesitate to get the upper I linked to, as long as you aren't expecting sub-MOA accuracy.
If you want high precision, I would go straight to a quality stainless barrel, and there are many to choose from. A good stainless 5.56 barrel should go at least 5-6000 rounds of top accuracy, possibly 10,000+. That's a lot of shooting.
If you want chrome lined anyway, Palmetto State Armory has offered a 20" rifle barrel that is cold hammer forged and apparently made by FN - that is probably the best chrome-lined 20" AR barrel you will find. Other good options would probably be BCM and Armalite. Not a whole lot of companies are making 20" chrome-lined AR barrels right now, as you probably know.
