Default Rotel RCD965BX Discrete

Just bought one of these for a 2nd system but can't find much info on it .
Anyone tell me what the difference is between the standard 965BX & the
Discrete
version ?
Just out of interest really.

**I presume you are referring to the LE (Limited Edition) version? The
standard 965 employed the usual, 5532/4 output ICs. The LE version employed
separate output PCB populated with discrete transistors, instead of ICs.
Sound quality was somewhat better with the LE version, IMO. The price
difference was significant. Here in Australia, the extra cost was around
AUS$300.00 (100 Squid).
