PS Audio DL III DAC with Arcam DV78? Should I?


I have an FMJ A32 with a DV78. I am actually surprised at the performance of the DV78 as a transport. Ever since I first laid ears on it I thought I ran into a bargain. I am also an audio addict and always looking at upgrading for two channel audio. Do you think that the PS Audio DL III would be a drastic upgrade? I have not had a chance to hear it and no one stocks it. I think the upconverting would be a plus and changing from the rca outs to clocking the digital would also be huge. But... maybe not. Any opinions?
Thanks!

The DL III is a truly wonderful unit, especially for the money. I have considered having Cullen do mods to my stock unit, but it is already so great that I am holding off for awhile. Sometimes I just can't believe how good Redbook CDs can sound, given the right recording. Also, there is a 30 day money back guarantee from PS Audio and sometimes they have demos or 30 day return units for less, still with full warranty. Sorry I can't tell you if it will sound better than the Arcam, only you will know.
