RE: What's the Best CD/DVD player from the past to be used as CD transport?

Hi Ki,

I recommend ripping all your CDs to your computer hard drive and forget about playing CDs. That's what I did four years ago and I wouldn't go back to playing CDs if you paid me. I ripped mine to WAV files, but there might be better formats for including metadata. I don't care much about metadata, though. I play my CDs directly from a USB hard drive connected to my Oppo BDP-105D and it actually adds the metadata. It apparently knows what I'm playing and it gets the metadata from the internet.

Anyway, forget about CDs and play your music from USB drives. If you get the new Oppo UDP-205, you can connect it to your Burson DAC and play just about everything digital from the Oppo UDP-205 through the Burson DAC.

Best regards,
John Elison
