As I do some homework regarding CD & DVD players it continues to bug me that folks praise or slam, specific units without declaring whether they are using the DAC in the player (and analog pass through on the their pre/pro's) or using them as a transport (connecting through the coax).
I'm assuming the music will sound different, especially since most of the arguments here are over incremental changes in sound anyway.
Additionally, whether you believe in synergy or not, associated equipment groupings have an effect too.
My sense is there is very little "blind" side-by-side analysis that is done. Yet... there is no shortage of authoritative commentary!
Newbee, Chuck is right, its a general comments, not directed to anyone.No offense here. Enjoy the music. You will be surprise,How many friends I met here at Agon.
