Hi James,

Will BCD-3 be able to program track sequences?
Like play tracks 1,3,5,7. From the Bryston remote?

Thanks,
Pete

Hi Pete

Not currently but it is software so it can be done in the future.

Hi Folks,

So we are officially going into production with the CD Player. The bean counters tell me it should come in at about $3500 List. It will be about 6 weeks till we have production as all the parts have to be ordered and manufactured but if you are thinking of ordering one now is the time so we can get a handle on how many parts to order to get started..

I may sell my BDA-2 and go straight into this rather than the network route or digital player route. Decisions decisions

Hi James,

Thanks for the exciting update!
What happens if you don't like what you hear...

?

I'm assuming it will have to be a hard-wire Ethernet connection in order to obtain software upgrades?

Time for me to contact Audio Eden and order mine...

So this is the type that use D-D over sampling to 'upscale' data and then feed the data to a non-over sampling DAC for better sound quality?

In short, similar in theory to a bank busting dcs combo?
