Martin was one of the hard core early adopters of Bob Stuart's MLP, aka DVD~Audio.
He fought valiantly on the front lines here during the Great DVD~Audio/SACD war of 1999-2002, but all was for naught.
Your conclusion isn't far off the mark.
He's in denial, probably something to do with finally having to accept SACD's victory and inherent quality along with DVD~Audio's demise, but even though he must have HiRez--and that HiRez is now SACD and not DVD~Audio, he can't bring himself to mod his player, thereby making it even better, lest he admit deep down that the sound is simply stellar.
I think that people who are into self-multilation, have the same illness.
