I keep thinking I should modify my Toshiba DVD player for 2 channel playback (whillst still keeping ability to playback movies of course !)- apparently its got great Upsampling DACs (well I think they are anyway - they are Analog Devices AD1955s -uses all 6 in 2 channel mode) but spoilt by the worst ever op-amps :( - NE5532 :( ?? insides look well built to me anyway - the 2 channel just doesn't seem to cut it - due to the op-amps perhaps -I'm not sure ? Its a very stable transport too.
