??? All In One CD Ripper - SACD Rip/Playback - Streamer ???


Does anyone know of an all in one unit that will perform all of these functions? If it didn't Rip SACD but at least did do playback that would be acceptable..
It would be nice if it didn't cost more than say $2500.00 but less would be better as long as the performance wasn't too compromised..Thanks much,take care...

There is a thread on the 'Audiophile Style' site that shows how to rip SACD's using specific disc players. I have used this with an Oppo 103 universal disc player for years with great success. They list the different players that work and how to do it, and the users are helpful. audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/28569-sacd-ripping-using-an-oppo-or-pioneer-yes-its-true/#comments

Unless you already own or have access to one of the viable players investing in the player would cost something- Oppo 103's sell used for about $300 on AGon and elsewhere. The number of SACD's you own and want to rip will be a determining factor if you want to go this way.  

Ripping cd's can be done on a laptop with a cd drive, either built-in or attached. There are a number of apps that will catalog the rips by title, artist, tracks, etc., some are free some cost. The major cost with this method, as has been mentione is your time. 

 

The only method for ripping SACDs is a black market work around using a PC. I bought 3 Sony (they invented the format) bluray players that do it for <$50 each

I would only consider ripping CDs on a PC since I value sorting by genre which is most easily manipulated using one.

"All in one"s have compromised features by definition.

Checked out the Wolf Audio products as I’ve never heard of them. Their products look appealing. It seems their main website is no longer in service.
