[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1616353, member: 555320"] Not at all. All the deck is doing is reading the 1's and 0's off of the CD. They're all going to be reading the same 1's and 0's, and digitally sending those same 1's and 0's to the processor. You'll notice zero increased sound quality from switching different decks when using the digital outputs. You are completely bypassing the DAC's (digital [I]to analog convertors[/I], there is going to be no "to analog" conversion happening within the deck), so don't even bother mentioning those in a discussion about digital output. That's not to say there aren't reasons for using Eclipse (like the 8053). Great build quality, good skip protection, decent looks, etc. But sound quality is definitely not one of the determining factors. [/QUOTE]
