Agreed aolprodj Naim does make very nice cd players. I have often thought about that company not getting into the SACD end of development. I have always wanted to audition the 555 top-of-the-line spinner. Happy Listening! |
Agreed - twoleftears Simaudio does make nice players. Happy Listening! |
Thank You guys for the information on Mohican, Primare CD35, Bryston BCD-3 and ARC CD8 spinners. I have not auditioned any of these newer players to date. I have demo'ed the ARC CD5, CD7, CD9 and Primare CD22. Keep writing about the players as above. Happy Listening! |
Thank You for the update- elizabeth the DVD-A10 is still a cool spinner. Keep us posted once the SA-10 arrives and is massaged into your system. Happy Listening! |
everest-
2nd note;
Ayre does stock pile the drive/transport(s) for the DX-5 a/v engine.
Odd.
Happy Listening!

everest-
the Ayre is tempting, but, those guys did not stock pile the transport/laser assemblies for future replacement?
happy Listening!

elizabeth-
I wanted to ask if you bought the SA-10 review sample or did you opt for a factory new spinner? Thank You.
Happy Listening!

Another buyer of the SA-10, from a different forum, referenced Audio Emporium in WI. Happy Listening! |
Much Thanks! nonoise
how long have you owned your SA-15S ?
Happy Listening! |
Much Thanks! cakids how long have you owned your SA-11 mkII ?
Happy Listening! |
Thank You- elizabeth
you are certainly one of the very few to purchase/own the SA-10. Keep me posted upon receipt of the player and integration into your system. Happy Listening! |
Outstanding! elizabeth
Give a shout-out for the Marantz dealer/retailer where you auditioned the SA-10. This player is on my demo -list as well. Happy Listening! |
Excellent points - Guys. I would like an Esoteric DV-50s or DV-60, if I knew that the drives/transports and other critical parts, were avail for replacement. Happy Listening! |
As above, Bryston, should have stock-piled those Philips L1210 CD drives.
Poor judgement from a company that has been around long enough to know better.

Nice choice! imgoodwithtools.
regarding ARC, I have auditioned , the CD5, CD7 and CD9.
Happy Listening!

TEAC/Esoteric can be hit-and-miss as well. There are rumors that the older spinners SA/DV series, no longer, have critical parts/drives?
Esoteric is not known fro their customer service either? At that level and price they should be in my opinion.
Happy Listening!

Right On! Spin a disc or two. Relax.

Thanks! for sharing. Odd decision about the Bryston BCD-1? Good to read that they are back on track w/ the BCD-3 regarding transports/parts avail for repair/replacement. Recently, I saw the Primare CD35. The previous CD32 used a Sanyo disc drive/transport that is readily avail. I wonder why those guys switched again?
Happy Listening!
