| Best combo for sound and picture quality in a Blu-ray player? Have you considered getting a disc transport and using a separate DAC? | |
| MoFi controversy I don't care one way or the other, but I thought the main point of this MoFi controversy wasn't so much the sound - a lot of these vinyl guys are saying the sound is excellent on a lot of these - but that they are paying large amounts of money for... | |
