I also agree with your friend. In that price range about the only thing you could gain would be HDCD decoding but as far as sound I think it would be a wash.
Benefit of a DAC for a good red book cd player
I've a Rega Apollo CD player and I like it a lot.
Would adding a DAC be of any sonic benefit. Several people I trust and respect state that any changes would be sideways ones, at best.
If so, thoughts on a moderately priced DAC? (I realize "moderately" is subjective but let's say $5-600 or less.)
