Is Sony 555 CD player too old?

I would look into the Combridge audio DAC. Your sony has a digital audio out then running a outboard higher end DAC would definately improve the sound. Its just up to you, you could try it and see if it does what you want it to do.

Tomorrow NAD people will come home with the DAC to test it. Actually my 555 sounds pretty well but there is the danger of eventual failure, and here arround, the snob Sony people do not give it support anymore. At my 72 I thing that I hardly will be able to feeel any subjective difference won't I?. Greetings
