Don't feel bad

about selling your player. I have a SONY XA-7ES which sounds better than a cheap Toshiba DVD, but not nearly as good as a mid-priced Pioneer player. They're all different (not really the problem), but some are clearly better (that is the problem, if one doesn't happen upon the right one).

All one has to tell me is that one player sounds better with one DAC and another player sounds better with a different DAC and I'll have to conclude that we haven't made much progress since the vinyl turntable as far as variability is concerned.

Yes different transports can sound different, IE: One can sound a lot worse - Elizabeth 11:41:20 06/09/14 (1)
