Well the transformer can limit frequency response and also ring - neither of which are good.

If your CD player/DAC has a poor output filter that is allowing clock noise through or is peaking the HF response, then a transformer can smooth that out as it will act as a low pass filter.

But if that's the case I would look for a better CD player or DAC. You should not need to add stuff like this to fix problems in your source components.
