By the way,

The rip off artist, Audio Reference in Hamburg Germany is
charging you 450,- Euro for the drive plus tax plus postage plus installing costs.

By the way, put today a homemade DVD-Audio 24 bit 192 KHz in.

It worked. Well wasn't so happy in a long time.

Perfect sound.

Look here:

They are quit nice. But at the end you do not know for sure.

It´s like UK going out of Europe, to play with Trump.

Let´s see who wins in the sandbox.

Best regards

Hi

Just replaced the drive in my G98DH. Installed was a DSL-720A and the drive Meridian provided was a DSL-710A.

Works perfectly

Worst part of task was removing all screws and then re-installing in my system!

Well,

I do not know, but can you play DVD-Audio?
With a 720A you can, but with a 710A I do not know.

So would be nice if you could comment on that.

For me looks you have been cheeted.

Best regards
Andreas

Wasn't it an obsolete chip that was the DVD-A issue rather than the drive? So as motherboards got swapped out with those with newer chip, DVD-A functionality was lost.
