Re: Toshiba 3990 pauses between tracks?

Ditto for me. I noticed your posts regarding the Theta/MSB DACs but the interesting thing is that the architecture of the dual differential DAC paths is reminscent of the early Theta DACs that did this using discrete parts versus doing it "integrated" on one Zoran chip. Results should be better matching. I'm on my 3rd DAC but it was a friend's MSB DAC that got me started ( well received and reviewed in Stereophile/Soundstage around 2001)...this Toshiba is simply several cuts above that standard...stock! What are you running the 3990 into?

Back to the farm...I poked around this morning and found this description about
the makeup of a typical CD using gaps and tracks. I guess in a classical CD, these gaps are encoded in a way that seems seamless...I do not have any CDs with this "gapless encode" and need a definitive link about this and how playback should be accomplished.

This may have to due with the Zoran chip and their might be some hidden menu to allow gaps to be removed.
