Devialet DAC quality equivalent?

[kenreau]

Yes, I can't argue with that. Other than the TotalDAC DAC I've read a few using here, it appears most use the internal Devialet DAC. I know the cost of the TotalDAC. I guess I was wondering if there is any consensus of at what price point, or appliance level makes a sonic impact significant enough to go with an outboard DAC. For instance, the TotalDAC, the Berkeley Reference DAC, Meitner, Exasound, dCS Debussy, Esoteric D-01, probably worth it. Auralic Vega, Benchmark, Myteck, Wyred 4 Sound, probably not.
