I think you guys are missing the point the OP is outputting the digital conversion to the Krell processor in which case he would really just be using the 300cd as a transport? Pretty sure that was the question, I would say if you just need a transport save money and pic up a used Rega or something like it.
High end CD player paired with High end processor
I just demo'd a Krell HTS 7.1. Very nice 2ch audio. I was using a very low end cd player at the time. Would adding a Krell CD player of that same level (KAV300CD) be an over kill?
Would I hear the difference?
The rest of the set is: Aragon 8008 MkII, ML SL3's.
I am new to how good better equipment sounds. So forgive the dumb questions. Working off a limited budget and don't want to spend money on a piece of equipment I wont be able to tell the difference with.
also, using balanced connects between the HTS and the amp.
entry level coax cable (digital out) from the cd player to the HTS.
