What dac would upgrade my Music Hall CDP?


Hi,

I am looking to integrate a DAC for both my Macbook and upgrade my current cdplayer, the Music Hall 25.2.

Would the DacMagic or V-Dac provide much of an upgrade on redbook cds? Is there anything between the $300 - $400 dacs (Cambridge, Musical Fidelity, etc..) and the big guys (Benchmark, Berkeley, Weiss, etc.) The most I would be able to cobble together for an upgrade is around $500, so I want to get the most bang for my buck. Also, if there are rumours of good new DACs coming out of CES, I would wait till next year.

Thanks!!!

I've not owned the vDac but someone I know is in the business and they've been flying off the shelves since a recent Stereophile review. No returns either. Customers with whom she has spoken think very very highly of this sub 300 product.
