best redbook cd player versus good dvd-audio unit


hi,

I was wondering if there is a benefit to adding a mid-priced good universal player which can play dvd-audio well to augment my emmlabs great dac and transport.

There are some good titles on dvd-audio like the doors, talking heads, neil young, rem.......

I cannot afford to splurge on a 5K universal player like the ayre 5cx so probably it would be the denon 3930ci or the mccormack udp1.

I listen to two channel only although maybe when I move I will add a home theatre 5 channel setup too.

so for a 2 channel setup, is it worth 2,000 for a mid-level quality dvd player to listen to what is already out there in high resolution dvd-audio or keep listening to the best redbook cd on my top of the line emmlabs equipment.

Telescope,
Ive hear/read a lot about this player...but have yet to hear it. what other gear do you have? what did it replace in your system?
ive got a fairly revealing activ all Linn system, and am without a cdp at the moment...i listen to vinyl about 75-80% of the time...thinking of picking up an oppo as a temporatry solution..will this sound horrible or what? pls see my system, updated. thx
