What's up with that Analog price? Even with MSBs imo slightly disgusting add-on pricing it's a lot more than expected...

One can start looking at Signature V for that money.

Negura you'll have to explain the pricing in UK, to make things clear. You guys are not on the same page price-wise IIRC.

I am actually comparing with the MSB pricelist for the USA... yes sure one has to add some options and there's an expensive powerbase. But still it looks very expensive for the Analog DAC. That's Signature V money.

On an unrelated note, that MSB network renderer looks very interesting to me. If done well it could be the best out of all worlds. My understanding is it's an unfinished product at the moment, which makes it surprising they are listing it for purchasing.

I assume since the USB part of multibit Gungnir is unchanged, that its "90% of Yggy" only applies via S/Pdif input?

Hi guys,

Complete noob here about CD players, but i was curious about the way they are different. Does not seem to make much sense to me. Im new though.

Different designs for motor, spindle, tray, laser, transformer(s), shielding, damping, board layout and components.
