Direct connection of CD to Power amp

I have experienced a great deal of sound quality improvement in direct connection of cd to power amp. Any opinion on this?

Fpoo -- are you asking for my opinion on your experience of improvement???
It's good you are satisfied -- I've done it too. But I'm still confused as to what you are asking.

If its a good match its a good match... Some will be some will not.. 90% of the time a tube preamp in the middle will change things for the better if the system needs something more.. You don't so leave it alone.

As a reference, I prefered my old Audio Aero Capitole direct to a Mark Levinson amp over running the same CDP through either a Cary or BAT preamp. On the other hand, I prefered my old Wadia going through the preamp over going direct. I currently have a Resolution Audio going through a preamp (Calypso), I have never tried it direct (my systems have changed, that is why).

So, in the end I agree with the others. It depends!!!!
