Thank you Amirm so much!: For including vintage gear in your reviews. It allows some of us who have some of this gear (or a lot of this gear) to see if our choices were good (perhaps even good enough). It helps (at least some of us) decide: SHOULD we refurbish what we have, or step up to a different unit or even a modern unit when we are adding more modern sources to our gear. I have added Bluetooth capability (APT-X), a DAC (via my oppo 205 UDP) and the ability for my TV audio to go through my 2.2 stereo, due to finding out that my main system gear is "good nuf" (for me, anyway). Otherwise, I would have been starting from scratch again & wasting resources (in more than one way). The financial resources I have been able to put toward buying and renovating a home instead of stereo gear (making my wife happy that she has a new gas cooktop).
She is unaware that the new kitchen came from money that I had formerly allocated to stereo gear.
