+1 for plastic penguin's sentiments and suggestions.
If you are really interested in an item then, rather than wait to see how other people rate it, seek it out yourself and get a good long audition.
The lack of other forum members reviews can often mean one of three things.
a) nobody owns one, b) if they do own one they are not prepared to add their comments on this forum, or c) it's not up to much. 🙂
FWIW only one piece of my system was bought purely based on a review, and that was the Oppo.
