"it seems as if everyone and there brother agree that adding a DAC will improve things greatly."
That depends and may not always be the case.
An external DAC will likely change the sound but that does not assure any improvement, only a different sound. It's a matter of what your goals are soundwise for the DAC compared to current sound.
What aspects of the current sound are you looking to change or improve?
