DAC pre

I will be adding a McIntosh ms300 music server in the near future. The MDA1000 DAC is out of my price range for now @ 8k...has anyone had success with the Bel Canto DAC3?

I am pleased to see the built in volume control, and many of the same features/connectivity of the MCD1000...The Bryston BDA-1 was also on my short list...but no pre amp section..
