Justy, I'm not totally familiar with the B&K receiver, but my understanding is that all inputs are digitized. Eg, an analog in (a tuner, a CD player, etc.) will be subject to the receiver's A/D then D/A. So, I'm missing your point in trying to add a separate DAC. If you add a DAC, then your receiver will digitize that. Am I understanding you correctly? If so, that's why we want to have an analog bypass in these types of receivers. Then you get all of the advantages of a separate DAC or a good single box player.
