You most certainly can. A CD contains redundant data, with which it
performs error correction--just like every other digital information
storage device.

Unless your disc is severely damaged, none of those "4000" errors
gets to the DAC.

I suggest creating a CD and checking for errors yourself. I've done
this, and there aren't any.
