the fmj series from arcam is among the best 'front end' values in digital audio. it may indeed go up against more pricey outboard dacs, and may better many as well.
Arcam cd36 vs perraux dac
I have had an arcam cd36 cd player for a couple of years. Recently I was convinced that if I buy a perraux silouette dac and use my arcam as a transport only I would notice a substantial improvement. This advice was predicated on the assumption that burr brown dacs are superior to wolfson dacs. So far I haven't noticed much of a difference. Could it be that the perraux is not yet burned in or should I not expect much of an improvement at any point?
