I am currently using my bottom-feeding Tohsiba DVD player as a CD player. I use a digital connection so I am using the DAC's of my receiver (NAD T752).
I am thinking of getting a dedicated CD player and using an analogue connection. My receiver does have a bypass so I would benefit as long as the DAC's in the CD player are better than the DACs in the receiver.
What would some of you recommend in the $400-450 price range? I have considered the NAD C542 or the C521BEE. However, I am looking for the 'best bang for the buck' (aren't we all?).
Any input would be appreciated.
