Birdland Odeon Ag DAC - how good is it??


I'm considering buying a DAC for my CD player. This CDP is an integrated CDP & has an internal 18-bit DAC but it operates only at 16bits/44.1KHz. The CDP does have a digital output which I can use to feed a DAC. Several DACs come to mind with price ranging from reasonable to unreasonable!
Some of the DACs under consideration are:
*Birdland Odeon Ag with & without clock jitter upgrade
*Wavelength Audio non-oversampling DAC
*Museatex Bidat DAC
*Meilor Bitstream DAC

The most affordable one appears to be the Birdland Odeon Ag. Does anyone out there have experience w/ this DAC? Can you please share w/ me how good/bad this DAC is? & what sort of sonic signature this DAC has? Also, I'm open to other DAC suggestions (as I'm quite sure that I didn't list some other potentially good DACs).

TIA!

Interesting. Then why is Perotta listed on Birdland's site as an authorized dealer?

How much is the Platinum dac?

What D/A conversion technology is it using, the same as the Odeon Ag or is it something else?
