I would have to disagree too. I think that many of the entry level
audiophile products give the high end a run for its money. I think the
ONLY place to spend big money would be speakers. I have played with all
sorts of things in my source chain and they DO make a difference.
However, the big payoffs for me came when I spent serious time and
effort on speaker placement and then on upgrading my speakers. In the
last few years I have gone from Dynaudio Audience 70s (decent) to
Dynaudio Contour 3.0s (very good) to Linkwitz Orions (awesome). The
speakers are just very different and have had the most impact for me.
The next thing for me is looking at my room and possibly doing some room
correction (Inguz) or otherwise. I think that the room is much
important than the sources too. After speaker and room are good, go up
the chain.

Either get a good DAC or have the SB3 modded, including a good power
supply. I think the DAC would be the surer bet - certainly easier to
change again if it doesn't suit your tastes.
