Does the 7995 have optical output? I really want an optical unit so I can add a processor later if I want without the analogue losses, but I'm not sure if I like the 7998's Fantom Face thing. If the 7995 has optical then it leaves me the choice between the two.
The 7995 has no internal amps right? Also how is the MP3 disc loading and track skipping times on that unit?
Cheers
