Have transports improved for Redbook CD playback?

I recently bought a new Cambridge Audio CXU HD to use primarily as a transport.  Red Book CD's are better (more detail, huge sound
stage) than my Italian made Northstar transport, and Blu Ray movies are stunning! 

As an additional bonus I can stream from my computer (WiFi) through the CXU and straight into my Chord DAC which is MUCH, MUCH better than streaming through Roku (also WiFi) and the TV to the stereo.

For $700.00 I'm very happy!

Note: the CXU HD is strictly a spinner, it has no on-board DAC.

@fixedincome It seems as though the Cambridge unit is a complete blu-ray player (with built-in DAC). 

Nope, no DAC.

Ok. Bad look up from your earlier post. Thanks.
