Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Re: For that price I don't think you will hear a difference. (nt)

FWIW, I've tried putting both a Toshiba 3950 ($50) and a Pioneer 563A ($150) (both unmodded) in my reference system just for kicks, and the Toshiba was noticeably better than the Pioneer (mostly because the Pioneer sucked eggs really badly!). Neither was a particular "Giant killer", but the Toshiba was certainly worthy of comparison to other CD/DVD players under $300...

(Reference system consists of Focus FS888 speakers, Blue Circle BC3000mkii preamp and BC206 amp, Dodson DA-218 DAC and modified Sony S7700 for transport)...
