Bryston BDP media server a good choice today?
The Aurender N100H is also very interesting. Has anyone compared these two equally priced units by listening? 
Input impedance issue?

PS Audio Bridge - simple question
Thank you everyone. They were great answers. 
Solid State Buffer

Solid State Buffer
Thanks Guys,I checked out the Pass site and they sell an empty circuit board only; no parts that I can see. That's not in my future. As for the used Burson in Melbourne, well I'm in the USA and shipping would add a lot to the cost, but I will keep...
