Who is ditching their shiny disc spinners?

I would keep one SACD/CD player active in the system, remember to use it occasionally to keep it’s lubrication/moving parts from becoming problematic from disuse.

I did LP’s exclusively for over a year, then I bought an Oppo 105, and re-discovered many great CDs.

Compared prior player to Oppo. It too sounded amazing. Kept it, prefer it’s smaller size, features and remote, sold the Oppo. I don’t stream.

I realized, the CD’s sound amazing, better than ever, because of all the other improvements I made:

new power filtering
new 6 nines copper: speaker connectors/silver solder; speaker cables; spades; interconnects with locking rca connectors
new 16 ohm L-pads in speakers (replacing incorrect 8 ohm pots).
re-coned 15" woofer
new gold rca inputs for vintage preamp

Any CD Player you keep will get the benefit of any future improvements.

I buy LP versions of favorite amazing music, they most often beat the CD, but I’d rather buy ’new to me’ music than churn LP version for CD version.

did I forget to mention, I have a heck of a lot of CDs.

@jperry using the DAC in the Oppo, not the bluesound, and/but wanting to upgrade that too. Eyeing the Audio-Gd R8MkII R2R DAC. It’s that OR if the DAC in a new Marantz or Yamaha CDP is enough improvement. Think that’s doubtful.

My Moon transport + Aqua DAC combo sounds great to me.

I have no desire to spend the time ripping cds.

I like physical media. 

I've read many posts by people saying how much better purely digital playback sounds only to discover their "benchmark" for physical media SQ is an Oppo or something similar.  

I already have enough screens/menus to navigate in my life, thank you-- 
I have 0 interest in adding more. 

Get my drift?  

I apologize for my uneccessary snarkiness re: the Oppo.

My experience with them has been underwhelming. 

However, if it sounds good to you in your system. that's all that matters.

plan to spend around $2k … since I’ve ripped all my CDs to the Vault, thinking of spending it all on a DAC

Excellent idea.  Ditch the spinner/buggy whip.  There are a bunch of great DACs in the $2k range that’ll dramatically improve your overall sound quality from the likes of Denafrips, Soekris, Gustard, Audio gd, Musician, etc.  Best of luck.
