I amd having difficulty understanding how a middle-of the-range Japanese bluray player provides better quality sound from CDs than the G98 which is not much more expenive but allegedley one of the best audiophile UK branded CD player and DVD player.
This is not the comparison that David is making. He's comparing the G98 (connected to his G68 via MHR/SmartLink) to his LX52
+ Meridian HD621 HDMI audio processor. The HD621 includes Meridian's apodizing upsampling technology which is not present in either the G98 or, at the moment, the G68.
Welcome to the forum BTW!
