Re: newbie re sony master/slave- in what respect?

Advantages of Master/Slave:

- They share single input on receiver and do so nicely. (CDJ also manages this)

- with the title/track info on the higher end ones, you can slave a cheap/stupid one (I have a CX270/CX200 pair). The CX270 has memory for 400 disks and does appear to allow groups across.

- given the above, my spouse appreciates being able to walk up to the master, sort-by-artist and scroll thru looking for a CD without having to remember what player its in.

- X-fade is awkward, but my experience so far is that master/slave ping-pong is timed a bit better when Sony does it than when CDJ does... am I doing something wrong?

What I don't yet understand is why slink-e has problems with master/slave configs at all? Can't it just treat the master as a single, 400 disk player and send all commands to it? This would avoid collisions with the slave.
