However, does anyone have any information that pertains to my original
query, about the Radio 3 broadcast chain, and specifically what CD
players/DACS do they use and is there any compression?


There's a load of useful info at the BBC R+D labs:

Basically all BBC FM radio is digitised at 13 bits, 32KHz,
whether it's live or not.
