Marantz sa11 S2 - upgrade to outboard DAC?

I was just wondering if this unit is worth installing an outboard DAC? If so, what would be appropriate to look at? I do not know that much about digital so any help would be appreciated.

No output when playing SACD. New stand-alone DACs support high res PCM and DSD. You will need another digital audio transport/renderer to make full use of a new stand-alone DAC. If your budget permits, please consider Marantz SA-10 instead. It will allow you to enjoy high res playback as well.
