Actually , with your equipment , I would think you would hear more of a difference . My example is taken from years ago when I was using some modified hafler amps and preamps , the noise in comparison to the present system was huge and the overall presentation not very musical . Am now using a transport to NOS DAC to tube preamp feeding an ARC amp to Modified MG IIIa's and a velodyne sub . Absolutely any up stream changes I make seem to make very big differences in the total presentation . Last week I switched in a cheap dvd player for a transport instead of my usual CD player for a transport (bits is bits , right?). everything became smoother with way less bass slam and a minor discontinuity in the upper midrange . I ultimately got really fatigued with the upper midrange thing and missed the bass slam so I swapped back . With the old system one would not have even heard the midrange problem , or the bass either .Anyway , after seeing your list of components if you can't hear much difference I would go for the CD's . Especially if your pleased with the sound of your system and are not going to be updating a lot equipment in the future ;~)) This is ultimately not an equipment race , when you reach audio nurvana stick with it and enjoy the tunes .
