Bryston BCD-1 to upgrade or not?


I currently have a Bryston B100SST integrated amp with the onboard DAC driving a pair of Totem Model 1 Signatures. My CDP is a Rotel 991. I currently am using the onboard DAC in the Bryston to process the input from the Rotel 991.

I am thinking of upgrading. Originally thought of doing the speakers and going for the Mani-2 sigs but have some reservations given my small room size and the potential lack of power in my amp.

I am thinking about upgrading my source now. Will moving to the Bryston BCD-1 make any difference given that I am already using the same DAC in the integrated?

i am sure many cd players are better than the dated Rotel 991 but are they better than the rotel with a Bryston DAD?

My budget is approx. 2500 - 3000. I don't want to spend the money just to get a comparable sound as the onboard DAC.

Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks

Honestly, I don't think you can find out without trying - another persons experience may not match yours. Who knows how your Bryston handles the interface jitter from your Rotel with your speakers/system - is it even audible - will the BCD-1 do better or will it jsut fit better to your ears in terms of overall synergy? I'd suggest you get one (with a return policy) and try it out (just make sure to volume match exactly when doing A/B's).
See Bryston's J.Tanners response to this very question:

I thought with re-clocking it doesn't matter how good the source component is, it can send things with gigantic jitter and the DAC re-composes the signal completely?
