Would this be an upgrade?

Hi- I've been using a Theta Miles cd player which is the balanced version and like it alot. But, I have a Sony 9000es dvd player and was wondering if I add a dac to that would it sound better? The dacs that I was interested in are the Theta Basic IIIa and the Classe DAC-1.
Please let me know if anyone has any ideas or feedback on this.

Thanks Jim

Hi Rockvirgo, The Theta sounds much better than the Sony on redbook Cd's. The Theta's soundstage is much wider and better overall. And the bass is much better.
I heard that the dacs in the Theta are the same as Theta's Pro Prime IIa. But this brings up another question, how much better is the Basic IIIa's dacs than the Pro Prime's?
Thanks Jim
