    Need good SACD player
    Hi guys. I am looking for a good SACD player/changer that also does well with redbook CD's. I have heard that some players do SACD very well but seem to loose something when it comes to redbook cd's.

    What say you?

    Thanks

    Sony's do SACD pretty good. Yamaha C750 plays everything.

    I have a Marantz DV6400, which is last years version of the DV6500. 95% of the time it's playing RBCDs, and I loves it. The sound beats the living crap out of my old Denon CD player.

    HI Randy, Sony ES SACD changers can be found used on auction sites like audiogon and E bay for a steal and they sound great..

    Hello. I had the use of a Sacd player for several months and didn't feel that it added that much to the redbook cd performance. But if you really feel it will then I've read that the Marantz 8260 is pretty good tho I've never heard it myself. I have a different model Marantz player that has been very reliable.
