Good DAC to go with a Pioneer PD-65 as a transport

Just bought a Pioneer PD-65 player and want to use it as a transport only. What is a good DAC to use with this unit?

It can support a pretty good dac. In the sub $1000 price range the belcanto and evs and birdland would be good choices. For a bit over $1000 the new belcanto sounds interesting and the kora hermes in it's price range is a nice piece. I've used my modded pd-75 with an Audio-Logic 2400 and the sound is excellent and the modded transport certainly keeps pace with this fine dac ($5000 retail/$2000used).
