That's not clear. I keep comparing the sound from my Cube to that from my GS
running Diversi-Tune, Minstrel (based on tool35) and even Viad, Columns, etc...
which are all games from K. Mock et al...( great games I might add). Heck I 
even compared ModPlayer (on the NeXT) to Soniqtracker .63 the other day. To
me the GS sounds better. The NeXT, like the GS, has great sound potential
which was never fully exploited. And now that they are going for the MCA
crowd you can be sure that it never will be.
