Morasp: The person who compared SA-14 with SA-1 is Jonathan Carr, hi-end turntable and preamp designer living in Japan. Almost word-in-word confirmation came from Richard Kern (www.audiomod.com) who very succesfully modified SA-14 to ellininate its weaknesses as compared to SA-1
Marantz SA-14
Hi
Does anybody have any experience with the new Marantz SACD player, the SA-14? I am looking to get a new SACD player, and was put off by the new models coming from Sony in that they are multi disc players, and I can't quite get my mind around that concept for some reason...
I need a front loading unit, so the earlier Sony models are out, and that leaves the options as the Marantz SA-1 (too expensive), or the SA-14.
So has enbody heard this? The rest of my system is Electrocompaniet ECI-3, and Kef RDM-3 speakers.
Thanks
