$5k DAC....Will A $500 cd Transport Get It Done?


.
Spending $5k on an excellent DAC...will a $500 cd player used as a transport get you excellent auidiophile grade sound?

Assuming you've got a new $5k DAC, how much money do you need to spend on a transport to get excellent sound?

I put a $99 bluray into a Berkeley Dac and is sounded pretty poor. Changed to a Rotel DVD Player (a $1,200 DVDA model from a few years ago) and the sound quality improved dramatically.

Upgraded that to an Esoteric X03SE and the sound became amazing.

You get out of things what you put into them...
