The best DAC for the money


I'm thinking to buy a DAC, but not really sure which one to choose... Preferable with HDCD decoding, and reasonable price... You name it

System
Source: NAD c541i
Amp: Sim Moon i-5 integrated
Speakers: Revel M20
Cables: AZ Satori, etc...

Marakanetz, thanks, but I'm doubt I can get lots of Sim components for $3000 :) I definitelly would go for Moon Eclipse CDP, if its price would be as it is.
Theta Gen. Va cannot be beat in the price range you are looking especially at a used price of $1,500. I replaced my theta pro Basic llla with the Gen. Va and never looked back.
You would have to spend double the price to find a unit that outperforms it.
