I would sale the mac and get a pass preamp that would match up better and sound better with your pass amp.Any mac product that I have ever had was noisy and slow and just didn't sound very good to me.The oppo is not bad but I would look for a better dac such as ps audio ds or junior,I have both and love them.You could use the oppo as the transport and use the digital coax out to the dac.
I would'nt worry too much about cables as long as you are using decent ones.
