My recommendation would be to change one thing at a time to see (hear) if there really is any improvements (especially when borrowing equipment or cables).
When I got my Devialet 200, it replaced my pre-amp, power amp and DAC but everything else stayed the same, including all my cables and sources. So far, with the same cables and sources, my system is sounding great and proved to be a real improvement over what I had before. Then when I get the time (probably during the winter months), I may decide to experiment with some better cables.
I have no experience with Transparent cables and often wonder what those boxes incorporated into their cables really do but a co-worker of mine uses these and swears by them.
