Home Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

keeping things in perspective

Unless the DVD player, the digital cable, and the DAC are not working correctly, they should give you a good idea of what's on the disc.

I still believe the more musically significant changes occur elsewhere in the chain, speakers, speaker positioning, how the speakers interact with the room, listener positioning, and of course, one the greatest contributors to the sound quality is the recording/mastering of the CD itself (that's ultimately what is meant by 'improve the source!').

When you go for a reclocker, you're looking at another digital cable, etc...the cost rises and the benefits are very small. If you buy another transport, the differences will also be very small and hard to hear (you may be able to compare one input into the DAC against another, though, which may be interesting, but again, very tiny differences)

Also you have not said what your system is like, or what you are trying to achieve with the change.
