In Reply to: New to DACs here...for better sound, get better CD player, or get a DAC for current player? posted by mtrot on October 4, 2016 at 10:03:17:
Hey!
So the Mytek DAC's are fabulous, that's definitely part of what you are hearing. You can take the optical or coax digital outs of your player to it, and then send that to your receiver or headphones.
The Oppo 105 can act as a very decent music server over USB 2.0 with Tidal built in. So any USB 2.0 compatible (and driverless) DAC will hook up and play out of the box.
If you wanted a music streamer, I'd recommend building your own with a Linux PC / Logitech Media Server / Squeezebox. You'll get Android and iPhone apps too. A 2TB box could be built for around $700
