What is new with the Memory Player?


I have read that this player is the next great source at the online mags. Have others heard this player and is it currently being sold? What are the impressions of those who have heard this machine? Any information would be nice since I have read almost nothing other than what is contained in the magazines. Bob

I'm very interested in hearing impressions of the Memory Player too,
as long as this thread doesn't dissapear like the last one did.
After *navigating* under the specifications heading via the Nova Physics website,
it appears the unit can be had as a digital drive only, or a player with an on board 32-bit tubed output Dac.
I think the concept and player itself needs to be clarified or simplified for more folks to understand.

There still seems to be a bit of confusion with the review and how the player faired as a transport only, or a player with the built in dac.

A lot of variables take place with or without digital cables, power cords and the like.

The Memory Player has great potential if given the right direction, although the trickle-down theory will begin to take effect for lesser cost.
Not to start a forest fire, but I'd like to hear someones impressions comparing the
MP against an APL NWO 2.5T in the near future.
Let's hear more feedback from Scottr and possibly others, to help drag this technology outta the closet, it's getting interesting now.
Maybe 30%, the trickledown theory after the initial dust has settled, someone will definately take the lid off to see what makes them tick.

Computer and Pro-Audio entering the forefront of our highend two-channel systems, I used to laugh at it, not anymore.

The obvious difference between these two units seems to be the initial read and transfer methods from what I gather.
I'd say that sounds more than fair and reasonable, he's even coming to New York, couldn't get any closer.

Agree, Steve Nugent should check this out too, he's the other genius wizard with computer based music.

Getting these guys together would be great.
I'd like knowing if it sounds better with its built-in Dac or a very good external Dac and how effective or necessary is an excellent digtal interconnect.
