How weak is my Digital link?

I have a Sony CX90ES 200 CD changer with a CAL Sigma II Tube DAC with Mullard CV4004.

Rest of my equipment is:

Merlin VSM-M Speakers
Rogue M120 Tube Mono's
Rogue 99 Magnum Pre-Amp

I also have a Sony SCD775, It was for sale for $125, so I just grabbed it.

How much more would I have to spend to hear a significant difference?

Thats kinda the truth for most things, but there comes a point of diminishing returns.

My question would be, do I need to spend at least $2k to hear a "big" improvment? $1k? Or are those two component stong enough to hold thier own with and CD player or CD/DAC combo under $1k.

Toslink from the CD player to the DAC, Coax from the DAC to the Pre.

Hey for $30, ill try anything. I guess thats why I smoke pot. ;)

Kana,

Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean with regard to bypassing the input switch, what does that do?
