Want to buy a high-end and excellent DAC, help plz

Hi
right now I want to upgrade my DAC so I can stop considering about source for a while

My taste: liquid, image, soundstage, detail, neutral.

I have in mind about the theta gen VIII or the accuphase DC - 101. However, I don't think i have a chance to listen to the demos so everyone's opinion is very important to me

Which one is better in your opinion? or do you know some DACs better than them?
plz give me your opinion

thanks

Lobster King, go to my review of the Accustic Arts Reference Tube Hybrid DAC for details regarding its performance and why after listing to DACS that cost over $20000.00 more I still think AA DAC competes with anything on the Market today.

Lobster King, if your interested only in a solid state DAC I would recommend you look at my review of the Accustic Arts DAC MK3, which was my reference untill the Tube Hybrid. You could purchase one at a great price on the market right now.

I have had top end Accuphase pieces in my system in the past and have heard Theta gear in other systems and still think the AA DACS, to my ears, are more musical and still resolving compared to either brand.
