Denon DVD-5910 Transport for a DAC???


I recently had problems ordering a dedicated CD player which left me with what I believe is a better opportunity to improve my system ad hoc, primarily improving the DAC of my CDs without buying a dedicated CD player. This would allow me to upgrade transports later on down the road (from the Denon DVD-5910 to something else).

My basic question is this, considering jitter, what component/components would I need to attach to my Denon being used as a transport to make it a top notch redbook CD player.

I do not know a great deal about DACs, but I can spend a decent amount of money. Do some DACs include buffers which re-time the digital signal to eliminate the jitter caused by transporting it from the Denon DVD-5910 to the actual DAC unit.

What do I need to know in order to set up something that would offer superior/superb sound quality (or is the Denon DVD-5910 with its dual differential top of the line Burr-Browns in CD stereo mode enough???)

I have read about the dCS timing mechanism which re-times signals. Do some units include this in their DAC box or am I stuck going with more than one unit in order to eliminate most of the jitter into higher end DACs.

Any help on this topic, even to clear up misunderstandings would be appreciated. Any advice at all on alternative methods, or on whether I should just consider a dedicated unit is also welcome. Ultimately I want my system to be as upgradeable as possible over the years.

The rest of my system components are the following:
Bryston SP1.7 PreAmp/Processor
Bryston 9B SST
Denon DVD-5910
B&W 802Ds for front left and rights

Thanks for any time people put into helping me out.

I would recommend a Bel Canto DAC2 or Benchmark DAC. They both have dejitter circuit built-in. If you want a dedicated dejitter/digital preamp between your DVD-5910 and the DAC, try a Meridian 518. Send me a PM I have three.

Check out MSB Technology. Their DAC units are very good and you might be surprised at what can be done with the 5910 using the MSB network modification. If nothing else the site goes into detail with information that will answer many of your questions.

Thank you so far for the initial replies. I realize I should have stated that I am interested in A+ class DACs, in the price range of 5000-15000 USD.

I will definitely look at the MSB web site. A few devices I am considering so far are the Lavry DA2002, Nagra DAC, Esoteric D-70, Theta Digital VIII and Weiss Medea. I'm interested in being certain that whichever device I choose doesn't depend on the transport for clocking at all, basically so it reclocks all the digitial input accurately to avoid possible noise issues that might be inherent in the Denon or in passing the signal from the Denon.

Any other device suggestions as well as input on which devices are capable of this, and which perform the best overall is highly appreciated. Eventually I will have to go out and demo and I want to limit it down to only a few devices.

I am very interested in dCS, and am curious if it is possible to use their DAC without having to use their transport, and build up to other addons later...

Thanks again!
For top notch cd plaback your Denon will be the limiting factor. I think unless you go big-buck, DCS,all the way---then don't go there at all.(Delies and Purcell are "their" entry level.) My Audiomecca Enkainthus bettered that combo and at half the price.
