Technics A10 DVD digital output options

Well, I still have those components but I have not had the A10 in the system for a while now. The A10 is built very well, much better than one expects for the prices it went for at the end. I have no idea what a used on goes for.

If I have time this weekend, I'll haul it out and run it through the Meridian 861 as the Levinson is in my other house.

Dvd-audio is analog output, maybe I don't understand. I do have that player.

Sogood,

This player and most disk players have digital outputs so you can use an outboard DAC. The DAC's used in a lot of players are less than optimal sonically, especially in mass market units like the Technics. Fortunately the digital output option gives owners a chance to upgrade the digital side as technology improves. Since you have an A10, you might consider just getting a different DAC instead of a whole new player next time you get the upgrade bug.

Sjh32, My only use for my Technics is as a Dvd-audio player so I only use it's 5.1 channel analog outputs. You can not use an outboard dac for dvd-audio with this player. My understanding from your post was that you were all set in the redbook and sacd department? This player will not output Dvd-audio through it's digital outputs but does make a pretty good transport for redbook if thats what your after. I bought mine new a few years back and it has been trouble free, I did use it as a video source the first couple of years I had it..it's picture quality is very good.
