I have a decent digital front end with a Lumin U1 Mini (w/ external power supply) and a Border Patrol SE dac. Have some CDs, but no transport. Would a CD transport sound better than a streamer of similar quality/price?
A CD player IS a streamer. It streams 16 bit data to a DAC. It reads this data from an optical disc. The difference is in the encoding. Since lossless streams are available there is no difference anymore.
