To DAC or not to DAC?

I currently have an EAD TheaterMaster-8 and PowerMaster 1000 and am planning on upgrading my Sony 7700 DVD player to the new Sony multi-channel SACD/DVD player rumored to be out soon. I listen to 70% music (rock/jazz)/30% home theater. Would I benefit from an outboard DAC like the Musical Fidelity A3-24 or other DAC in that price range?
PS I would like to thank Audiogon and members, this forum and site are priceless!

EVS modified SACD players:
I quote:
"What?! no millenium DAC? What gives?
We have found that a player with super mods will beat most any DAC"
They modify Sony C333ES and C555ES, I think. But no more EVS Millenium DACs if I got the story straight.
