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.
