W4S DAC1 / Stello DA100 / Cary Exciter DAC.
From what I hear the new SB Touch sounds much better than the Duet, such that the Duet maybe going bye bye. May want to add that to the seemingly never ending upgrade path: -)

Oh S--T.. I sure hope you like it Smholl.. I hope I don't let you down :-)don't worry it will smoke the Dac M .. what cables are you going to use with it and what source? 
W4S DAC1 / Stello DA100 / Cary Exciter DAC.
I have a W4S Dac 1, it's a great unit, and not just for the price. But hey it's only bested every other Dac I've had except my PS PWD, and the PWD is 3 times the price, and sure isn't three times better. There really is a reason everyone who's hea...

Digital out... does source matter?

You should check out the W4S Dac it is the new Dac to own at the under $1k price point. http://www.wyred4sound.com/ How are you ripping and storing your CD's ?? Flac, Alac, Nas drive?? 
Digital out... does source matter?
If you're using a Sonos (I am too) you will NEVER bother with playing physical media again. Just get the best dac you can. A cd player is completely superfluous and you'll kick yourself for bothering.
