To Dac or not to Dac

I think I have too much time on my hands but,,,,, I am currently using a Arcam FMJ DVD27a CD/DVD player and I'm toying around with the idea of adding a DAC to my system. One option I am looking at is to get the new Musical Fidelity KW DAC.Any thoughs about adding the KW Dac would be appreciated.
The rest of my system consists of B&W 802D L/R speakers. Bryston 7B-SST monoblocks and a Mcintosh MX135 pre/pro.

Using a good digital cable is very important. Most of the DACs that I tired in my system made a difference over the stock players. There are many different DACs and they all have a sound. You need to pick one that you like in your system. There are plenty used on Audiogon that you can buy and resell for about what you pay for. Tube vs solid state is your first decision and then the amount you want to spend to get better sound.

Happy Listening.
