Cannot comment on the Onkyo but ..........

Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

..... I nearly purchased the Marantz 4300 unmodded but it had a slight degree of congestion which led to an expensive, but highly successful mod.
Unmodded it is good for non critical listening and was far better than an older Onkyo I had previously. John Marks was impressed with this changer also. It certainly has clarity and dynamics.
As for 5 discs vs 6 (which the older Onkyo took), I have not found that any problem. Some comment has been made at times about Marantz reliability but I've had that changer nearly 2 years now & no problems. Also none with their SACD player.
Not sure that this helps but that is my experience.
