Accuphase digital preamplifiers (DC-300, DC-330)

I considered purchasing another accuphase cd transport to connect with my DC-37. I am coming to the conclusion it would not be cost affective. I visited Accuphase yesterday and spoke with Mr. Tozuka, international rep. I asked him if I could purchase a old cd transport like the dp-77 and connect to the DC-37. He advised against it because the newer components don't match well with the older components. In other words it would degrade the potential of the system. After reading the tests between the ultra expensive components and the modest expensive components, I am thinking a cost-effective oppo will be the best match for the DC-37.
