It certainly does seem that the 95 is aimed aquarely at the analog crowd. The player does have a more robust power supply, which clearly affects the ditital output, however, whether that translates into better digtial performance remains to be seen (I'd guess not). Of all the rebadged players, the Ayre seems the only one to have focussed on improving digital output performance.
