It does indeed play CDs and in fact has dual pickups for this purpose. It does not pass a true 96/24 signal, but I don't think there are any players still in production that do.
The CD sound quality is actually quite good if not great. Compared to my Adcom GCD-700 it presents with a bigger soundstage and more detail throughout all frequencies. I have read in magazine reviews where the reviewers compare it very favorably to the XA7ES.
