DAC recommendation

hi guys,

What do you recommend/how much would I have to spend, to match the sound and performance of my Resolution Audio CD50 and Rega Planet CD Player.

Thanks!

Just get that CDP modified. You will save on the DAC and a digital cable. Happy Listening.

And wondering if that exists for $300, new or used... What's the skinny on all the Musical Fidelity DACs up on A'gon?
