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

RE: New MHZS CD88H on the way

A piece of advice: don't replace the stock tubes with their NOS equivalents (if you have them) too soon - I tried Telefunken 12AX7 (and did not like the sound at all), short plate Mullard 12AX (did not like the sound either - very pretentious, with very smooth and silky midrange (while this player benefits from punchy tubes) but with unnatural highs and exaggerated sibilants) and ended up with stock tubes (for more consistent sound). I liked vintage Brimar 12AX7 tubes, though...
