Is there an SACD that can play cds well?
Hi all,I've learned enough to justify the purchase of a Sony SCD-1 today. Your comments have clarified for me that indeed equivalent redbook playback is possible. Thanks for your advice and experience.Bill E.

Music trivia anyone?
Where and when did the Dave Brubeck Quartet play their last performance? 
Is there an SACD that can play cds well?
No not yet. Frankly, I was living in audio nirvana(my myopic view) when I awakened to realize that SACD with SACD's was likely the way to go now if I could get equal results with my cd's. I am not prepared to spend $20+K for a unit though. General... 
Be consistent with brand?

How much does your system retail for?
I was surprised to find that the cost of my HT and my 2 channel were both $35,000+. That was two weeks ago. I've had a good two weeks. More to follow. 
I don,t Understand ????
I believe I missed my calling! I'm going to learn to terminate cables. Being retired is ridiculous when lunatics are running around earning the cost of a dinner for two at Alain Ducasse hourly!I'm sure it'll take me less time to learn this new fie...
