You're right that it's probably better to buy a dedicated DAC instead of using a TASCAM DA-3000. I bought the DA-3000 because I wanted to replace my aging Alesis Masterlink with a modern digital recorder that used removable memory cards. I only discovered later that it had an excellent sounding DAC and that it could also be used as an autonomous digital player. I also already owned a Stello U3 USB-to-S/PDIF converter, which allowed me to connect my computer music server and play all the PCM digital formats up to 24/192.
On the other hand, if I were in mtrot's position, I might consider something like an Auralic Altair DAC and streamer. He could keep his Oppo for playing SACDs and DVDs, but the Auralic Altair would do everything else. I'm even thinking of buying one myself, but I am currently doing everything I need with the equipment I already own so it's hard for me to justify the expenditure.
Best regards,
