Alón, yes, that is exactly what I am recommending that you do NOT use. Everything they say in the paragraph you quoted is essentially correct, but no matter how well the CD may be engineered for the particular purpose it cannot control what the PLAYER may do in the event of malfunction, momentary AC power dropouts, etc.
I believe that the moving coil section of the preamp employs a transformer at its input, which would be designed to handle signal levels measured in microvolts (millionths of a volt), and miniscule amounts of current. Misbehavior of the player, caused by the kinds of (admittedly unlikely) events I mentioned could easily put voltages across that transformer that are a couple of thousand times or more greater than those amounts. As well as overloading and stressing circuitry in the preamp that is downstream of the transformer.
Using the KAB device Bill suggested, you would use a conventional CD of your choice, and those risks would be eliminated.
