DD system

I'm guessing your question is, can you use the DAC of a CD player instead of the DAC in the Devialet. The answer is no but it needs some explanation. The Devialet has analog inputs that get converted to digital through its DAC before is't converted back to analog again, so when you use a CD player's DAC you are in fact doing a (digital to analog in the CD player) to (analog to digital to analog in the Devialet) conversion. That said, if you have a specific sound signature in your CD player, the Devialet's conversion is clear enough to show you the CD-player's signature.

Hope that helps

Hi,

the point is with the Devialet i not important what for cd player you use?  -> a Esoteric K03x give you the same sound like a simply "Oppo1 05"? (will be used as transport at the end is correct?)

if I go into the Devialet with the analog rca (xlr are not present in the Devialet) is used always the Dac from the Devialet or "only" if I connect my player via coax or analog cable is a "simply" transport.

I hope you can understand my question.
