Why do you suppose that would improve the sound of the player? (Wondering because I am having S/PDIF *added* to my APL.)

Because in the EMC 1-UP SE, eliminating the S/PDIF shortened and simplified the signal path.
You have to consider that the circuit design of the EMC 1-UP SE is probably different than the circuit design of the APL Denon 3910 with S/PDIF option.
