Does anyone out there NOT hear a difference in CD

Players? I am tossing around the idea of replacing my Pioneer Elite PD-65 with a Cambridge Audio 840c, but only if their is a CLEAR improvement. In the past I have had a difficult time hearing a noticeable difference in CD players from cheap ones to higher mid-fi ones.

I'm using a classe ca 300 power-amp and a Rogue Metis tube pre-amp. I also have Usher 6371 floorstanding speakers.

There is a diff but a $200 Oppo is at least half as good as the almost $7000 Naim CDX 2. So...buy a TT, any TT!

I'm guessing the Cambridge would only be marginally better than my old PD-65. Probably not worth spending the $1600 on it.

Maybe the Benchmark DAC I've been seeing some write-ups on would be a better decision.
