Benefits of a quality audio CD player

[prodigy6630]

I'm planning on purchasing a Marantz NR 1504 AV Receiver with a set of B&W 685 S2 Front Speakers, B&W HTM62 S2 Centre Speaker, B&W 686 S2 Rear Speakers and B&W ASW608 S2 Subwoofer In addition, I was simply planning on using my Samsung Blu-ray player for CD Audio playback.

My question is, what is the benefits of purchasing a quality audio CD Audio player (i.e. Marantz CD player)? Is there a noticeable difference in audio quality and if so, how do I go about choosing a good quality player?
