CD Players as transports for Schiit Gungnir Multibit

Thanks itzhak for listing note, also looking for Theta used. sbank, what are advantages over just ripping cd's to laptop with the NAS? Expensive option, with more to purchase, but respect new solutions education you are trying to provide. 

@robdive1, 

You are asking a question that requires a detailed response. I would first suggest reading Chris Connaker's 2 part review of the Sonore microRendu on CA site. If you like videos hans beekhuyzen's youtube channel has good reviews of the microRendu and the Aurelic Aries. If you have questions after checking those out, I would be happy to help you in this thread or via PM if you prefer. 

Oversimplying summary: Go with low power single purpose device in audio room that prevents minimizes distortions & noise from getting to your DAC; Fewer parts of better quality, doing less to screw with the music. Increase options for graphic user interface for fun easy use not reliant on any one vendor to maximize satisfaction & longevity of purchase path. Cheers,
Spencer

Thanks, I will review out the citing's you mention.

Nice stuff.

robdive1, the Cambridge Audio CXC is an excellent transport, you can still find the old ones for under 400.00 0r you can get the new on for under 600.00. the only difference between the two is cosmetic . they will sound the same. i use this on my Gungnir until i sold the Gungnir recently. buy a BlueJean 1694 A digital cable... from the CXC to the dac and enjoy.
