I have read many threads about the varying quality of the internal DAC circuitry in stand-alone CD/DVD players, but I have not seen anything addressing the variance, if any, of optical/coaxial digital output signals. Surely they must vary by manufacturer as well. Or is digital 'digital' and thats it? I know, 1s and 0s, but there must be good, bad and mediocre ways to form these bitstreams, no?
Somebody in the know (seriously, in the know, not opinion) please enlighten me as I have several players around here and I want to make sure I'm using the best quality source I own when I feed it to my DAC. By the way, none of them are high-end (all are off the shelf Sony, Marantz, Philips, Toshiba, Yamaha, etc).
THANKS!
