Well I feel your pain as my SACD just went on me and well...they want another $1500 from me and I am rethinking my brand loyalty 
Mcintosh MVP871 vs Krell SACD
I guess I am having troubles with loosing $4500 in players and then putting in another $1500 for a problematic situation that was never the consumers fault(ever).It seems like a game to some but for me this is a lot of hard work money gone down th...
