Using Sony 300 disk CD changer as transport


I am planning to purchase a DAC for my sister who currently is using a Sony cd changer mostly as a convenience. Preferrably I would rather buy a cdp since it is probably beeter in term of performance, but my sister doesn't want to have to change disk every time.

So I wonder if the Sony is a good transport and it is worth it to buy a DAC at all? This particular model only has an optical out.

Is your sister concerned about the sound quality of the changer, because if she's not, then why burden her with any of your audiophile aesthetics? For the vast majority of users a mega-changer system is far preferable than a single disc player.
