Buy a CD now or wait new technology

Check out a Cambridge Audio cd500se in the interim...maybe not expensive enough....

Worry about today not tomarrows technology. I dont think that either format will survive... The amount of audiophiles compared to the average listner who spent $800.00 on their whole system is so small. they are targeting a very small community of people who will spend $25.00 on a cd. I would never spend that. You must have a big collection of cds now? Well you need to play them on something right? again worry about today and get yourself a great player now and enjoy it. if you buy a good player on the used market and in one year you wnat to change you should only loose a couple bucks. Buy a Mark Levinson 39 and you will never need a better player than that. I own all levinson so I talk from exsperience. good luck

Check out this review of the BAT VK-D5SE on the "Enjoy the Music" website: enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0401/batvkd5se.htm
I wholeheartedly agree with Dick Olshers conclusions on this topic! The VK-D5SE is a stunning piece of digital gear, loaded with "yesterdays' technology", yet still capable of delivering true reference quality performance.

Lev 335,who spends 25.00 on sacd discs, certainly no one i know,and there are players for 400.00 list coming out in a few weeks,sacd is not going away,the 9000es dvd player 1100.00 street price was said to have better sonics while in sacd mode,than a wadia 860 in the april 01 widescreen reveiw.If your deaf and misinformed about sacd,then leave it to us that are neither to pass judgement.I have never paid more than 18.99 for any title.Ssomsit, why not try the accuphase sacd player and have the best of both worlds.SACD is today, for anyone with decent hearing.

SACD is here to stay. Buy an SACD player.
