No, what they heard in the test is valid.
Sorry, its just good engineering to fix, bad engineering in the first
place.
As to the question is a cable worth £350 ? Well only your ears, brain
and wallet can make that value judgment.
I personaly would look for a much less expensive option (good dacs are
less than that).

In the end though, should you connect your CD player to your Amp using an
analogue or digital connection (I always assumed digital).

How many amps have digital inputs? I doubt any of your 70s kit does . For
a short run, I can't see why decently shielded cables shouldn't be up to
scratch with digital. If you look inside an amp, it's not full of coaxial
shielded cables IME, but the signal is running down a couple of circuit
board tracks.

And if it is the latter, is there any point buying an expensive CD player?

IMO it depends.
