If you're going to oversimplify it that much, then all guitar pickups sound the same because all they do is pick up string vibrations and send them to the amp.Assuming that you are using a seperate dac all the CD player will do is literally read 1s and 0s off the disc and then send that information to it. Only difference will be maybe cheaper cd players will have a harder time reading scratched up cds but if youre going to split hairs that much then I would assume your collection is in immaculate condition.

Why wouldn't my collection be in immaculate condition? It's pretty effortless to take a tiny bit of care when transferring CDs between their case and a CD player.
If you are not choosing a set of speakers to compliment your amp + medium of choice (CD player / turnable / streamer) then how are you choosing them?The difference between vinyl and cds is slight, if you are pairing a set of speakers to the medium of choice then you are delving deep into mintuae that I'm sure 999/1000 people wouldnt be able to pass a blind test on. There'll be a difference, but wheather one is massively subjectively better or worse is another story altogether, especially as you go through different decades and genres of mixes.
