Have you heard the performance of the A5 CD player from Musical Fidelity,
considered by some to be the best CD Player ever, It really might change
your opinion.

The Musical FIdelity pieces I have heard have convinced me their name
is a misnomer. They also have the habit of using obsolete parts which
they have cornered the market on so as to pork you in the butt when
replacements are needed.

LOL

Many DVD players have reasonable DACs. There is no evidence that many
expensive CD-only ones use better, nor that any CD or universal player
works as well as relatively modest priced DAC units at any price point.

You are correct, sir.

What does the most expensive DAC chipset out there cost, anyway?

$40 maybe?

But I hate the way DVD players FF and lack basic controls!

I just don't get why "decent" DVD players are now $100, and they want
$300 for a CD player! And, no, the DAC ain't no better, or at least
not THAT much better.

Seems like there would be a LARGE market for decent-quality,
inexpensive, old-fashioned CD PLAYERS.
