PS Audio Perfect Wave DAC without the transport

I am eagerly awaiting release of the bridge and lens and plan to get the whole turnkey PS Audio music server package once it comes out. I was wondering if it is worthwile to get the DAC earlier and use it with my digital transport (using Marantz UD9004). All I read about is the PS Audio DACs performance when used with the PWT. Is anyone using just the DAC with other transport over S/DIF and how good is it? I am currently using the Xtreme DAC card in my Theta casablanca III.

I use a Cullen modified Sonos and a laptop with mine and it has been superb. The fact that you can choose native resolution or upsample (or downsample high res) plus the ability to rotate between filters allows you to tweak for your room a little bit. It helped me in my previous room, but I'm back to defaults in the new room.

I'm running ProAc Response 1SC speakers with a Red Wine integrated amp right now.
