I would summarise the pro and cons of my G98 as follows:-

Pros

- Excellent CD replay
- Excellent DVD Audio replay (even the limited number of disks available make it worth while)
- Upscaling (may not be state of the art but not half bad either)
- Ability to turn prohibition off (and other tweeks)


Cons

- bit quirky at times
- price new

I have no regrets about my purchAse but I would not buy new now. I also have no desire to sell and I envisage any HD player as an add-on rather as a replacement (for at lesat the next 2 years anyway).


Main system - Sources (Kodi-HTPC, Vero 4k, FireTV, Sat) into Trinnov Altitude 32 (8-16) (+Roon), Trinnov Amplitude 8 amp & Vivid Audio (Giya G3, V1.5) and REL Stentor III speakers. Others: F80 + Raspberry Pi and other Pi systems.
