What SACD Player
My investment in Hi-res digital downloads make CD quality barely satisfactory. But to get enough music I find that purchasing SACDs is a decent option. Up to now I have been using a Cambridge Audio 650 BD but I am looking to upgrade.
What I am looking for is a high quality two channel SACD player.
Factors:
(1) multi channel is irrelevant;
(2) price is not important - if I can't afford it I will wait till I can;
(3) Universal players: not needed as I can keep the Cambridge as it plays 'everything';
(4) Extra features are not important;
(5) Quality of CD replay is irrelevant as my CDs are all ripped to Hard Disk.
I am inclined to look at something in the Marantz line, or possibly the Oppo 105. But really I have an open mind. What I am hoping is that the collective wisdom of the Artists of Sound can give me;
- Strong advice about a comparison
- How you assess your own SACD player
- A thread or website you have found useful
Many tanks (the scuba divers word for 'thanks') in advance
