I own the grand total of three SACDs, one of which is ok, but nothing special, the Roxy Music Avalon SACD, which I quite like, and a Eugene Goosens item, just purchased, that sounds damn good even if the orchestral compositions are, for the most part, a bit oddball for my tastes. It has however made me think there might really be something to SACD.
I've always noticed Sony's ES series but have never heard one, sort of a "I wonder if they sound as good as they look" nterest but thats it. Now though I'm starting to wonder if they might be a good improvement to my elderly but very capable Pioneer DV-656. A good unit and I use a valve DAC with it anyway, but it's performance with the latter two SACDs was really something.
Could be tempted into an Ebay purchase of a secondhand one or a cheaper new unit if there is one that will easily see off my Pioneer - Any Comments anyone?
