Soney 9000ES as a transport

I've ordered my Sony 9000ES "MIB" (Men in Black) and wanted to know if anyone has used this as a CD transport. If so with which DAC? I figured that I would try the SACD stuff, get a great DVD player, and possibly a decent CD transport to use with my MSB Linc Dac II or may get a Muse 2/96 dac.
Thanks.
