- I have this player, and my longterm plans were to use it occasionally
- as an LD player, and often as a CD frontend to an external DAC.
- The MDP-333 only has the Toslink connector, and I see comments that
- Toslink is really a mid-fi connector - outdistanced by good coax or
- AT&T optical. I even hear that Theta will csoon ome out with something
- much better than AT&T optical. Is there any technical merit to the
- damning of Toslink? Has anyone truly heard and/or measured differences
- between it and the alternative?
