It's a side grade at best. Save up a bit of $$$ and use that time to research what will be a major leap over the the CA and MF offerings and when you have a few hundred saved up sell the DAC Magic and get yourself that DAC.
Don't overlook older used DACs...many of them still outperform the latest crop of so called wonder chips. Try to avoid upsamplers, that is a sonic straight jacket and dead end IMO.
