Using an external DAC with CD player - newbie question

I'm curious if anyone is using an NAD cd player as a transport? I have a 516BEE and was thinking about adding a Bifrost2.

Manual claims digital outputs are buffered (not sure what that means) to reduce jitter. Is jitter an issue when using a cd player instead of a dedicated transport? Or is it more related to cable quality and/or length to the external DAC?

Thanks - Mike
