Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday!


I've been hearing and reading all I can about this player during this last year. I have a 6005 right now and it's a nice player but not as good as my analog rig (10k) so it's not a fair comparison. Elizabeth mentioned that her SA-10 is better than her analog. I will be comparing the 2 SACD players side by side. I have at least 3 CD's in which I have duplicates. I'm fascinated about how the circuitry upsamples to DSD SACD. Well not exactly but somehow an improvement over Redbook CD. I have a 2" thick maple block coming in the same day for it. It's going to be a long weekend. I know it can't work miracles on all CD's. If there is jitter in the recording then supposedly you will never get that out. Speak up if I'm wrong about that.

@chayro   Come on.  You know, because you have been told so many times that there is no such thing as "break-in".  Can you measure it?  What objective data do you have to back up the "break-in" assertion?  You must be as deluded as I am!😝

@honeybee2012  I agree!  I inquired about the color issue but was just told that it was for the overseas market.  ugh.
@clearthink    "3" has got to be your favorite number!🧐😛😁  Yes, 3 emojis in your honor.
