I'd like to keep this post related to the DAC's found in the 990. I am mostly curious as to how they will compare with other DAC's found in $500-1000 DVD players. If anyone would please elaborate as to the difference. I see there is an anolog bypass feature which should make it an easy comparison.

My first question that perhaps someone can answer now is how many DAC's are installed in the unit? Is there one DAC per channel or do some channels share a DAC?
