Getting back into HiFi is proving to most enjoyable, revisiting CD I have not heard for at least 16/17 years, through speakers mothballed at the same time. I dont have a CD player, so I'm using my Computer . . . !!! Waiting for the DAC to arrive.
Question; . . . I will get a new computer eventually . . . ? How much affect does a 'CD/DVD transport' have on the eventual music reproduction? Can a better 'transport' be specified, if so, is it worth it, anyone got any coments . . . or would one be better off with a dedicated CD player??? Again, because its been so long, I have no idea what is available?
Another point, which RCA/phono inputs would you choose into an integrated amp, ie: CD=****input???, Computer=****input???, or, perhaps it dont matter? On the present 'stop gap' Rotel 820 amp, which, incidentally, is doing a sterling job . . . I have CD, Radio and Tape inputs, plus Phono, to which I may at a later date connect a turn table???
