Just use standard phono leads to connect the line output of your CD player to the CD input on the receiver. You will be using the DAC in the CD player, so no need for an external DAC unless you decide to get into streaming from your computer.

Your amp is analogue so it doesn't have a DAC inside it, hence the lack of digital inputs. The only way to connect a source to it is using a conventional analogue connection.
