HI Wayne, No I sold my museatex Bidat & bought this one instead (freed up the money for other things). I use the standalone CD player with its internal DAC. It sounds terrific, and looks cool too. It does have a coax output sp/dif, but I am using the unbalanced analog outs. I strongly recommend it! Hard to come by though....hardly ever see one for sale. Great soundstage & separation. It lacks the ultimate perhaps organic tonality of the Bidat, but sounds very close! I have still kept my museatex bitstream, which aftter a $350 mod by John Wright, apparently sounds quite close to the bidat. Just in case I miss that bitstream sound. But this CD player is GREAT!

HI Wayne, The usual: A dealer in the midwest wanted to get rid of one in INT condition, and made me a good offer! The name of the dealer is audiomaven, on audiogon & ebay. I recommend him highly. Excellent packaging. Decent value. The internet works well! -akhilesh
