Paying more than retail for the 777es is ridiculous.The retail on this piece was 1500.00 and has long been discontinued.If you buy into that theory, you are getting a very well built piece,but no warrantee and they do have a history of problems.The new Sony, though multi channel,by most accounts,outperforms the 777es and modded should be pretty hard to beat.Marantz also has a (SA-14) 2 channel player within your budget.
SACD Player?
Right now I'm using a Panasonic RP-91 DVD audio player, it's not that I'm unhappy with my CD-Player. Just that I'm hearing everyone say that you can get a great improvement by using a good source. Are there any good multi channel SACD players out there for a fair price? Will a good SACD player be a vast improvement over a regular CD player? I looking to spend in the neightborhood of $2000 or less.
The rest of the system consists of!
CD Player------Panny DVD-RP91 DVD audio
PreAmp---------Pass Labs X-1
Amp------------Jeff Rowland Model 10
Speakers-------Revel Studio
Interconnect---Cardas Golden Cross
Speaker Cable--Transparent MusicWave Plus
Any recommendations on which SACD Player or any of the above is the weak link is appreciated.
