Wait with patience and you will be amazed !!!!!! Both CD and SACD need (it is a must) at least 300 hours brake-in period. The 777es is a great product that everyone is letting pass by. I am very happy with the unit for two months now !!!! Enjoy it !!! Do not pay attention to audiophiles that do not want to accept that we are already in year 2001 and it is a different world (It's a SONY ....)
Sony SCD 777es burn in
Installed a new one in my system yesterday. Is the recommended time 200 hours and is that 200 hours for regular cd's and 200 hours for sacd's? Please let me hear your experience. Regular cd's sound awful right out of the box. Hard to tell with sacd since I have no prior experience.
