New toy in, and hey, it friggin works!!!!!!!!!! It was packed beautifully.
The Raysonic 128 came in yesterday and is sounding real smooth.
No wonders it is smooth it is a Burr Brown PCM 1732 with integrated HDCD introduced in 1999.
Hey, we're going backwards here or has digital really improved? I run it at 44.1 and it sounds great.
It really is a nice sounding player and the build is pretty cool too. Better than the Cary.
Being a Top loader it's like putting on a piece of vinyl with the clamp.

I have heard so many variations of digital the last few months I don't know what is accurate.
Or are we going for accuracy? I think not, we are going for personal taste most of all and then what sounds natural but not necessarily accurate. I have not heard a really bad piece of equipment in over 2 years and that was a Sophia baby and a POS EL34 version.

I'm through futzing with digital now for awhile.  :roll:

The Raysonic 128 is worth a look especially at 1/2 the price of retail and in mint condition as this one is.
I don't think it was played much.

Enjoying it.
