David Robinson also has a review in the works. There's further discussion of the MPS-5 over at the Audioasylum. Dave

The nagra sounds ok, but I find it a little toy like to use. It has silly button configuration for play and stop. I dont know the chord. I have the model up from the Puccini. Very detailed player. What are you planning to use it with?
