Is it worth buying a DAC

Posted by brian_chayer (A) on April 12, 2014 at 18:02:43

Just finish building the Finalist speakers (very impressed) to pair with a used Krell amp. My CD's are played through my CD/DVD player sounds pretty good. I was thinking of buying a DAC and saving my CD's to a hard drive and play back through the DAC to the amp. Can I expect to hear much sound improvement by using the digital files and the as compared to the sound output from the CD/DVD player( not an expensive player)?
