    Please report back when you've had a chance to listen to it a lot, especially redbook. I need a good universal player.

    Dusty,

    This was not a purchase that I anticipated on making at this point, I have wanted this player for quite awhile and was waiting until down the road to get it, in fact I had in mind to upgrade in a few other areas in the meantime since I was content with my Denon, however, I was given a deal that I just could NOT refuse on a universal player of this caliber. I heard this player about 6 months ago and was stunned at just how great it was capable of doing DVD, SACD and CD. My Denon was pretty good with both, but not as good with SACD.

    I am super pumped to get this sucker some serious play time and in about 2 weeks I am going to demo a few amps from PS Audio and see how they work with this unit.

    I will DEFINITELY be giving a report card soon on this baby!!!

    Very nice! I'm a big fan of the Parasound products. May you have many thousands of hours of listening bliss.

    But when I saw the "guess what I got" title, I expected to have to really guess. Like your guess what my avitar is thread.

    Parasound products are attactive to me, although they are ridiculously expensive, new, here in Canada compared to state-side, likely due to a greedy Canadian distributor.

    Is you Denon up for sale?

    yeah, be sure to review it, and post pics!!

    I wonder how much the parasound products cost here...
    the halo a23 amp looks pretty attractive, but it will probably be waay to expensive due to shipping costs and stuff, just like the magnepan products...

    Keep them spinning,

    Once I have it up and running I will be sure to post pics. I also just bought and modified a new AV rack to accomodate the new unit since it's a big taller than the Denon.

    The D3 lists for about $2500, but with it's capabilities there arew few Universal players that can match it.

    It does and similar to my Denon it also allows you to turn off the video circuitry for pure audio-only operations.

    Hella nice player. I have been frustrated by the seeming lack of a universal player to meet all my needs, so I'm enthusiastic regarding your impressions. Please report back.
