I'm Shaun.
Last year I bought a Pioneer PD-10K SACD player which is very definitely at the budget end of their range and within a year it has gone 'pop' and packed in so I honestly cannot say I am impressed with Pioneer. To replace it I now have a Marantz CD6005 CD player which, compared to the Pioneer, is a serious level up especially where weight is concerned.
