.If you want to get data from wherever it resides (physical disc or hard drive or memory or?) to the DAC then a computer has to handle the data. It might be a simple microprocessor in the transport with some simple dedicated code to handle the task or it could be a personal computer, but there is a computer doing the work.
"The transport feeds the signal to a DAC. "Not really, a computer controls the reading of the data and the computer then feeds the data to the DAC. I understand your desire to be blind to this process, to assume that whoever designed the hardware and wrote the software did it optimally and therefore lead you to be believe it is as good as it can possibly be, but that is a huge assumption. Why do you feel having some influence is a bad thing? I see it as a plus.
BTW your use of series/parallel is rather unconventional :>)
