Rives-
I was assuming Sashav has a preamp with phono or if not, and he needs it, he could add a separate phono stage. Your last post says most CD players don't have a digital in but I think you meant out which I don't agree with. Most high end one box CD players do have a digital out, and a high end transport would work even better. While it's true the D/A conversion has to happen somewhere but in the case of the Lyngdorf room perfect system the unit has an excellent D/A in it.
Thanks for clarifying though (and responding to my post!) as I felt your first post suggested Sashav would need new equipment and should abandon digital correction which may not the case. In the end I strongly suggest keeping an analog or digital source as far as possible. Thanks for clarifying. I think we're both making useful suggestions so Sashav can make the best improvements he can. :)
