Well, after searching around, minidisc.org came through as usual,
I asked this question in another guise and didn't really get responses, so I
will try again because it keeps me up at night.
What is the maximum linear datastream input/output of MD according to Sony
specs? By this I mean, when the signal is decompressed and turned into a
linear PCM output, wha
