RE: Sound quality cd vs. computer.

First of all, you'll need an outboard DAC in order to get the best out of computer files vs. an audiophile CD player with a good built-in DAC. Otherwise, it's not a fair fight. Your computer is a good storage and digital audio transport source if well-configured, but the analog aspect needs to be properly addressed. Otherwise, only the digital aspect is paid attention to vs. a standalone CD player.
