I believe that 95 comes to fill the "audiophile gap" 93 has left behind, with dedicated stereo analog outputs, and even balanced ones.
I'm sure modders will embrace the 95 which will have all the prerequisites to become a truly universal machine, capable of replacing computer-based audio front ends systems as well.
95 doesn't seem to expose its internal DACs to external transports, I haven't seen any digital inputs, but it will be capable of playing the music files directly from the attached external hard drive(s). It accepts FLAC...
I won't give up my 83 for the 95 because I already have a dedicated computer-based music system in a different room, built around W4S DAC2, but if I didn't I would definitely give 95 a good look. Maybe, as is, stock, it won't dislodge the W4S, but with mods...
93 didn't attract me for it didn't even have dedicated stereo outputs, but 95? A totally different perspective...
