A CD PLAYER whose sound quality NOT AFFECTED by the DAC?

don't, they have rca out to any input. some have xlr out.

there's a lot more going on, over-sampling, over-clocking, anti-jitter, OEM proprietary tricks, multiple dacs, multiple lasers (one for cd, another for sacd) possible conversion from DSD to PCM,

it's a salad, many ingredients, I had to work hard to find a salad I loved.

A CDP is a transport with a built-in DAC. What, in the name of YHWH does that have to do with a cheap Bluesound DAC?

Sounds like a personal problem.

Wut?

Why buy high quality?

Because it sounds better, feels better, and pulls more details out of the disc.

I dunno. Don't run your CD player through your Bluesound DAC?

Maybe I'm missing the point of the question?

Thanks. Yes, my NODE is my systems’PreAmp/StreamerDAC as well. Neither my Cary Tube Rocket 88 Amp, nor my Marantz MM7025 Amp, have AUX inputs. I currently run BALANCED to the NODE, whose DAC has been better than most. So, I won’t be grabbing an external DAC. 

BUT THANKS… I guess there is more to it. I currently use a Denon DVM-1805 MULTIPLE CD PLAYER. Is there a big upscale by purchasing something else?
