| newer CD player w/DAC that could replace AMR CD-77.1 Will you be playing SACDs? I recently learned, most SACD/CD players read a SACD’s higher resolution DSD content, but then internally convert DSD to PCM CD Redbook resolution, that’s what goes to the preamp. Advantage of recording DSD is retained,... | |
| SACD Players: Models with DSD Processor (used and new) (not dsd converted to pcm) Marantz, Yamaha, I have never heard their CD or SACD players. I bought a nice Denon with dual processors, but didn't like it, too sharp, a bit bright, I found one I really like, Onkyo Integra CDC-3.4 Mark II, but it does not play SACD, thus this... | |

Also, do you know if they have single or dual processors? I am looking at lightly used ones, but it’s so hard to get clarity. Found a nearly new Marantz DV8400, Is that one SACD DSD out ... | |
| SACD Players: Models with DSD Processor (used and new) (not dsd converted to pcm) It's about playing existing SACD discs directly into the system, getting the DSD off the sacd and out the player's rca's without converting to PCM's limitation within the player. | |
| TT Recommendation Think Long, proceed with all or some now. What do you listen to? Any Mono? More than 1 Stereo Cartridge? A MM cartridge, and/or a MC Cartridge? IOW, think about having either 1. TT with Single Tonearm with VTA on the Fly (fairly quickly change ... | |
