Break in of Link DAC III
Do you have the P1000 Power Supply? The P1000 made a big difference to my DAC III. Also switching from Toslink to Coax input helped a lot. 
Adding Digital INPUT to a CDP for use as a DAC?
Save yourself the agony and pain. Find a used MSB-DAC III for about $250. DAC I & II's are even cheaper! 
Pushing the envelope on B&W 802 series3
If you don't have stands for your 802's, that would be my first upgrade. A good pair of stands( I have Sound Anchors)will tighten everything up. 
Where's My Bass?
If you don't have the P1000 power supply for the MSB DAC, you are missing a lot of bass. I recently got a P1000 for my MSB and the difference was immediate and obvious. All of a sudden, the bass we there.

CD Player to match with ARC and B&W 802 Martix
Save yourself so money!!! Use the Planet as a transport and get an external DAC. I am currently using a MSB DAC III with my Rega planet and 802 Matrix III's. Real mellow combination. No listener fatigue. 
DTS's CD----wanted to buy

Fourplay ...yes please Jazz CD
I'll have to agree with Lev335. Some of their earlier CD's are better than Yes Please. I own all of their CD's except the Greatest Hits. This is truly one of the best band's around. You might also try to find their DVD. I got my copy at Ken Crane.
