Panny UB9000 for 2ch

Replaced the Oppo 103 with a Panasonic UB9000 and currently using the balanced connections for 2ch.

Just cruising with Dwight Yokum, Clint Black and Brooks and Dunn CD's. Great sound stage for initial impression.....if you like that kind of country :)

Tomorrow I'm going to throw my Judas Priest "Sad Wings Of Destiny" CD at it, that ought to shock the whole system :D

    Considering when it was released, it's a pretty good sounding CD. I love it. Enjoy!

    The UB900 was just about as good (for 2 channel audio). In fact, I play my FLAC files via the USB input to utilize the DSP modes.
