" My estimation is a laptop + good USB-to-S/PDIF converter + Metrum will outperform many CD players at the same price point ".

im wonder if i will connected like this(from my ion pc of fujitsu q1500 ,usb to s/pdif to the metrum dac) ,is it sound really better then cd player like the E.A.R Acute (that is the best cd player im heared)? can someone compare them ? and another importent thing is this metrum octave dac will be much better for all the ears (even not only for audiophile people ) then my Rdac of arcam dac that sound very good with compare to my cd player Cary cdp1 is the same level with with my rdac the only thing that the cary was better is the high gain bout when i set the volume in my amp higher it was equal comparing.
thanks alot for the response and i wish you people will write me more response for what i ask .
