it shows up on my screen???

Stout looking power supply section, output uses FET input opa2134 op amps, clock module is screened, nice shielding on the transport and that little itty bitty Sabre 9008 DAC chip

Still no luck, go to this link and look for "nagaesan" posts

Supposedly Stereoplay (a german audio rag ) reviewed the MCD500 and while they gave it high marks they still measured jitter at 630ps. This is strange since if you read the ESS tech sheet they claim their design is capable of producing close to no measureable jitter.

I don't know how important jitter is as HiFi News measured the MBL 1531 CD player at 880ps and found it to be the most revealing player they had heard at the time. I just get a little concerned when I read tests of much less expensive players testing at sub 100ps.
