A CD player for....CD’s

So I’ve been round and round with either getting a turntable or a CD player. I’m using my Blu-ray player as a CD player, my system is mostly home theater gear, Denon receiver
X4300, mono Outlaw audio M 200s.

I know Denon makes some nice CD players and I thought I would just get a dedicated CD player and start there instead of going through the whole turntable album tonearm cartridge.

I use a Bryston DAC3, which has 4 HDMI inputs, and and Oppo 105 as a transport.  Your BDP would do well here, and you can use the DAC for other digital sources.

Is it worth the effort to move into a DVD-A/SACD unit too ! 
My Denon doesn’t have 7.1 input though.......

Yes many bluray players play bluray, sacd, cd. My Yamaha does and it sounds excellent. (I list it plus my cd player on my system if that will help.)

Replace your Denon with a Oppo 105, which can be had on the used market for ~ $7-800

It's power supply is its weakest link (as with all inexpensive BluRay players


THEN

on Ebay you can buy an upgrade Linear Power Supply Module + upgrade the IEC and wire that plugs directly into the LPSM
