> No doubt if someone took the time to find the best sounding CDP it would sound different and better than using a PC as source.
I don't think it should sound different if you connect the PC to the CD player's DAC. I ripped all my CDs to my PC using EAC and my digital rips sound identical to the CDs as far as I can tell. Of course, my CD player consists of a separate transport and DAC, and I used the same DAC to play my digital rips. Anyway, I don't notice an audible difference and I don't think there should be any difference.
