So our sony sdt9000 just died (after several years of hard service) and I
figured I would pop for a sony tsl-s9000 changer, expecting it would "just
work".  With all this discussion of funky changers, I decided I should ask,
does anyone successfully use the sony tsl changer with either chio or amanda?
Any other DDS changers that someone recommends (lower end of budget)?
