Cd players, Transports and DACS Oh MY

I am soooo confused. I have a Creek CD 60 and want to get a DAC. I am considering Burson 160, Wyred Dac and YBA. The YBA is a disc player that can also be used as a DAC. (My Creek remote is shot so maybe it isn't bad idea to get the player?) Is the YBA any good?

How about upgrading to a music streamer? I use an Apple TV2 and stream from iTunes to my DAC. Great sound and never have to put a disc in. OR, how about the new peachtree iDAC. Put all your music on a 160gb iPod classic (uncompressed) and again, all your music in one simple package. OR, if you don't like Apple, get a squeezebox for streaming, control it with an iTouch remote.

I wouldn't use an ipod only becuase it does not support 24 bit and also if I buy hi res files i wont fit them on an ipod. I was thinking W4S

OK as I understand it the yba cd/dac combo is probably not as good as the stand alone dacs so now I need to decide in the $1000 to $1500 range what should I consider.
