dvd vs cd?


I'm upgrading my system and would like to use a dvd player for audio.I've built a pretty decent setup and would hate to compromise quality here. But then again if i could get a dvd player that sounds great ,that would save me 5-6oo$. Dvd players i've thought about are pioneer elite dv37. Cd players are the cal audio and cambridge d500. Thanks for the suggestions.

I have made several previous posts on this topic, and haven't drawn too much ire from others. I do not personally believe that it makes good sense to buy a CD player given the technology changes that are taking place. I recently replaced my Rega Planet CD player with a Pioneer Elite DV-37 and I am extremely pleased with its audio quality (which I think is better than the Rega Planet). You can get the DV-37 for around $650-700, and it's a great buy at that price. The DV-37 not only provides progressive scanning for DVD's, but also has a 24/96 output jack for use with an appropriate pre-amop/processor.
