Unfortunately if you are attempting to maximize sound quality the "transport" (in this case a dvd player) matters. That is because there are various levels of error and error correction that come into play when reading the disc. The cheapest and, to my mind, best solution is to rip your music to a PC so where the cd is read and reread multiple times to get a bit perfect transfer and then stream from your pc to the DAC via a squeezebox (or something similar). In my experience the quality of sound using a PC as the digital "source" is in the same league as transports that used to cost 2-10 thousand dollars. That is because a conventional transport (no matter how sophisticated and expensive) must read the disc in real time and compute or estimate to make corrections on the fly while a computer is able read and reread the disc untill it gets the data correctly.
