The XA9000ES's are hitting the Classifieds Rapidly


I guess more and more of us are giving up on SACD.. What a great player for $1350.00... Thoughts?

Alex, I agree, I heard the XA9000es is better.I heard
it at a friend house is better than a SonyDVP9000es
stock.But my SonyMod9000esDVP Modwright is way much
better its not even close.Modification works.I heard
Dan dont modify the XA9000es.I did remember inquiring
about it.The reason there is no space inside.Thank you
also for letting us know.
HDCD seems to be where the Music Companies are heading not SACD. Just the other day at the music store I saw the entire Dead catalog and CSN done in this format. I own a modwright Platinum Mod Sony s9000es and I'm very happy with the sound. I've never heard a SACD disc on it. face it Sony since BETA has never been able to get their formats accepted by the big players, maybe demanding to much of the pie.
There are probably just as many SACD's out there as HDCD's,so I wouldn't get too fired up about it.Also,didn't Sony and Philips co-invent Redbook(cd)?Gary.

P.S.You really owe it to yourself to listen to some SACD's on that fine player of yours.
Qdrone I cant believe it ,you missed so much, SACD on the
SonyModwright is LIVE and Real.Do yourself a favor get a
good SACD recording, trust me its as good as Vynil without
the defect.
