Hard Drive based system
Ecruz, Have you tried the Sony with SACD yet? If so, what are your thoughts with this machine with this format? Bob 
Marantz SA-1 holding up well agains next gen.?
I want to thank a couple of SA-1 owners who advised me to use XLR's on this player. The SA-1 is much more transparent using the XLR connections. In this configuration the SA-1 is far better than I previously thought. My unit is very cable sensitiv... 
Marantz SA-1 holding up well agains next gen.?
I have only tried mine with RCA's. A number of SA-1 owners tell me that I need to try mine with the XLR connections because they are far superior. I will try this over the weekend. Bob

Preamp Deal of the Century
My Chenin is at my vacation house and I can't remember if they accept XLR connection? Can anyone please tell me so I don't waste my money on wire that doesn't (or maybe does) work? Bob

Has anyone moded this unit and who good was the Sa-1 Modified? 
new updates in transports or are they obsolete ?
What would it cost to set-up a good hard drive based system? I am assuming that I buy an off the shelf product that I do not have to modify (or have someone who does this for me since I am incapable of doing it myself). Bob 
H2O S250 vs CIA D-200 vs PS Audio GCA-500
I have not heard the other amps but I can say that the H2O s-250 signature is very good. I am using them on my Scintillas and am very happy. You should be able to audition the amps in question with your own ears. That is the only criteria that rea... 
How would you describe your class D amp's sound?
Henry Ho makes the H2o amplifiers. I own two of them (S-250 Signatures. Their website is:www.iceh2oaudio.com. 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
They sent me a test disk with three other disks when they sent the Marantz back to me. It starts with two songs in French. It is the second song that I was referring to. There is also some jazz and blues on it. Bob 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
I did listen and it was very much like I expected. It sounded like it needed to be broken in! There was a fuzzy quality to the sound that will probably go away in a couple of days. After experiencing the break-in of two digital amps, I know that i... 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
My SA-14 arrived in my system yesterday. Let the break-in begin! My comment is that the SA-14 was boxed very professionally by TRL. I almost hated to unpack the player because the craftmanship in packing was so well done. I know that sounds crazy ... 
Best SACD player under $1500?
Larry Rosen, you look into TRL (Tube research Labs). They are doing a mod on my marantz sa-14 (see long thread). They are quite reasonable at $550 per unit and quite good. Bob
