TRL Marantz Sa-14
Dracule1: I'm included in an order of 25 players that TRL ordered from Marantz USA about 3 weeks ago. I could get one from another source, but at added expense. This said, i can wait ... I think. Regardless of where I purchase, it will definitely ... 
TRL Marantz Sa-14
Oldpet: Thanks for your kind words. I'm not unhappy with my TRL/Sony players; I just made the mistake of hearing my friends TRL/SA-14 and all I can do is think about how much better it is. (Once again, I'm losing sleep with my TRL/Sony, so it's no...

TRL Marantz Sa-14
I've got to admit, I'm starting to get a little impatient with Marantz USA. I'm still going to try to wait it out ... How can the US distributor allow themselves to completely run out of stock? If I do lose my patience, I know the TRL/SA-14 is a w...

TRL Marantz Sa-14
Yes, La45 and I are related! As he said, " ... we belong to the TRL Family, thank you"!I've heard the Modified SA-14 in TRL's listening room, (it could have been Oldpet's that I heard), and it was very impressive. Paul says the 11 will be better. ...
