Cd direct to power amp


I have a Wadia 830 cd player, currently connected to a Krell integrated and Aerial Acoustic 6bs. I am thinking about connecting directly to a power amp, and would like to know thoughts and experiences. I am considering Bryston, Classe and Krell. I know I can bypass the Krell preamp, but at this time, I only have balanced interconnects and the amp part of the krell integrated only accepts rca. I would appreciate hearing your experiences and suggestions. Thanks,blbloom

I run my Sony 707ESD straight into my power amp. It sounded much better than running through my Marantz AV9000 which is for my home theatre... I finally broke my system into two. My all out HIFI, and my home theatre.
Oops, I also meant for this to be included: If you are wanting to do the work yourself, you can hook the ground on your male RCA to pin 3 on your XLR cable and the + (Center) on your male RCA to pin 2 on your XLR cable. I also have seen a few companies selling a cable like this. Madrigral is one I think. Hope this helps!
