Marantz 8260. I purchased mine before it was listed as Stereophile "A" category recently with $20K players. The rating just backed up what I feel is one of the best values on the market. Excellent sounding SACD AND exceptional sounding CD playback.
Now only one glitch, SOMETIMES in SACD playback it will just stop playing. It then resets back to start of SACD and I have to hit play to start again. I've recently purchased Dark Side o'Moon SACD and this happens more often than any other SACD. Anyone else experience this?
Nothwithstanding the "glitch" I still believe the Marantz 8260 is an excellent deal.
