Getting back into audio and need advice....

After a bunch of time I'm getting my system back up and running. I've got a Sony CDP modded by Modwright and a Bel Canto DAC1 with a Cardas connect. My question is this; will a 1k CD player these days have a better DAC and Transport than what I have now?

Probably not. I'd stick with what you have there.

Ncarv, how high would I have to go to surpass what I have now?

I haven't heard Bel Canto DAC1, but I used to own Bel Canto PL-1A and currently own Linn Unidisk. I've recently purchased Sony XA5400ES, and I am amazed how much more detail Sony can bring out of redbook CD. MSRP $1500 and a little over $1000 on eBay.
