That cd player is fine. In this case, don't waste money on an outboard DAC.
Newb to DAC question. Benefit of a DAC for only CD listening
I know I'm not completely "new" to DACs as they are in my CD player, but...
If I am not streaming, and not looking to use it for headphone listening......
Would an outboard DAC really upgrade my sound if my CD player is only 2 yrs old NAD 516 BEE??
It has 24/192 Delta Sigma DACs in it. What would I have to spend to get a significant upgrade in sound, and any suggestions would be appreciated, as I am new to the outboard DAC world
Thank you
