Am I behind the digital eightball?

Here's the scoop. I own the AA Prima cdp. I love the sound. When SACDS first came out, I avoided listening to them, not only because of the limitation of my Prima, but the 500 or so cds I have. Now, there are oodles of players that do both. The Ayre C-5xe review has got me thinking. Is there a digital front end that will, at the least, give me what I have with my Prima, plus SACD with equal panache. Now, better than my Prima would be nirvana. I bought my Prima new three years ago, and would love to spend, proportionately, the same $$ for a cd/sacd player. Any thoughts, recommendations? thanks in advance, warren :-)

Hi Warren,

I guess the recent discussion on the Prima triggered the upgrade itch for you.
You might want to talk to Howard (Boa2). He upgraded from the Prima to a
Cap I, and finally to a Denon APL 3910. He very much liked the Prima but
thought the APL 3910 is a huge upgrade.

For me, the Prima is a keeper for now. My analog rig has to change before the
Prima in my current setup...Since I got the Prima i realized I have to get a new
phonostage, table, etc to keep up.

Good luck with the upgrade itch.
