Sony 9000 ES SACD output stage cold


Ok you guys, I've now got OVER 300 hours on my SACD section and the sound STILL is not as good as the digital output decoded with my MSB link dac 2! I even bought 2 more SACD's to see if they were any better than the Sony sampler, no improvement! Unless there is something wrong with my 9000ES the SACD quality is a joke!! Any Ideas? I'm using Harmonic Technology interconnects & digital cable feeding a VAC Standard ltd. ed. preamp driving a VAC PA 100/100 all tube power amp connected to Von Schweikert VR5 speakers.

Hello Darrell,

My dealer told me to stay away from the Harm Tech digital cables. I have harm tech throughout my system, except for digital (sounds great). I have not had a chance to audition a burned-in sony 90000es.

Hope this helps.
