Using Samsung DVD player as CD player?


I'm currently putting together a small audio system for my 110 sq. ft. room, to be used primarily used for classical music. I'll be using PSB Alpha Monitors and a NAD C325BEE Amplifier (see links below), but have been considering just using my DVD player (Samsung 1080P9) as a CD player. Am I crazy? How much will the sound quality be affected?

Many thanks,
Robert

Robert, your other option would be to use the samsung dvd player, and feed the digital out to the little MF VDAC.
If you search the postings you should find some very pos. comments on its sound quality.

YOu can buy the VDAC new for 299 on line from several sources, or other option would be to watch for a MF A324 DAC here on audiogon for 400 bucks or so.

good luck
