I had a ML-36 combined with an AR-1 CD player ... simply loved the setup ... later took the ML out of the system ... the sound was a bit different, though not much, and I immediately wondered why I had spent almost $4k for a DAC that, in my opinion, didn't compete well with the AR inboard DAC ... nor with the Musical Fidelity DAC that I next purchased for a fourth of the price.
The ML is nice-looking and perhaps makes you feel like you've done the right thing by having it ... sell it and go in another direction ... that's the sport of this stuff.
