Question for DACs


I wonder whether DAC could greatly improve the sound qulity of old CD through my DVD-V player. If it really could , is there any DAC (about us$800) can decode HDCD or with upsampling function. Thank you for your advice.

If you can find a Cambridge Audio S-700 DAC it will decode HDCD. I've seen them on eBay and Audiogon pretty cheap. In addition to the PMD-100 HDCD filter, it comes with an SSA-7350 DAC-7 converter chip. It is also its own issolation platform for putting your transport on.
