Thanks for the info.....I know it will be good as a DVD
player....I have a good DAC for two channel playback.
I would expect a Sony to be a good transport.
I see the new BLU RAY player is actually more of a
true 2 channel CD player (NO SACD etc.) KInd of like that
for use with a DAC. I think the other BLU RAY (that did not
play cd's) has been reliable after the first bugs were worked out. Everyone pays SONY for their services anyway.
(SACD...BLU RAY...TRANSPORTS) I know they are not into the transport thing like in the days gone by....but I had
an ES player just for video and had no problems.
ANY OTHER INFO IS HELPFUL!!!!
