Redbook CD Upgrade


Currently utilizing the Cal Audio 2500 DVD player for the CD player...Cal 2500 SSP as the pre-amp...Cardas Golden Ref Interconnects, Bettercables Blue Truth Speaker Cables, & Aerial 10T front speakers.

Am pondering whether or not adding a DAC into the equation would deliver noticeably better two channel sound and if so which DAC's would do so. Two on the list would be the Wadia 25 and the Classe DAC-1, as I have seen both used in the $900 to $1,400 range. Any and all feedback most appreciated.

Thanks

Assuming you are not content, if it were me, and especially in the price range you mention, I'd simply investigate in another/better cdp or SACD/cd unit. Sometimes using XLR connections everywhere can also provide additional sonic benefit.
