The PCM1748 :-) I believe the only external DAC's are Monarchy and
Perpetual Tech. There aren't a lot of cable choices either, as it's
intended to be used in one-box players.

Judging from Seans post I linked on page 9, it's sent to the internal
dac as spdif. The conversion is obviously well implemented from the
jitter measurements, so doubtfully worth dorking with- especially if
your DAC doesn't have I2S input. 

Before I got SB my plan was to buy the CDpro2 transport and DIY a one
box player, in order to take advantage of I2S. Hearing the SB made me
forget all about those plans.
