| The ONIX XCD-99 CD Player ... any new reports The Onix XCD-99 is essentially the same player as the XCD-88 with a few minor improvements. I own an XCD-88 and I am very pleased with the performance.

| New Intel Mac-mini to external DAC Kana813--What is the source of your information that the optical digital output of Macs have high jitter? Does this claim hold true with the new Intel-powered Mac Mini? | |
