Esoteric K-03X:

Hi zephyr24069

Many thansk fro your vavable informatin!  There is no 'Play Area'  botton on my old X-03SE remote controller, maybe I should look at 2 channels/ Multi Channel at that time. Anyway, the new K-03X remore has Plat Area botton (Just saw the picture from internet), it is much more convienent.

I think my computer has something wrong in m y last 2 posts, now I try again.

As we know the hybrid SACD has two layer, one later is SACD, another layer is normal audio CD. Many SACD player can choose which layer to play.  For example, Accuphase DP-720 AND DP-550 has a function called  “Read Area”. However, it seem like my Ex-CDP (X-03SE) does not have this function, it can only read the SACD layer.  I couldn’t found this function showing in my user manual. Also I couldn’t found this from the setting mode. My question is if my new CDP K-03X can choose which layer play?  Is it from the mode setting? Or only the top model K-01X has this function?

Anther question is in a
