Allen,I have been corresponding with a gentlemen in Japan who is also using transformer output (Jensen) off the S-TACT in the SCD-1. Instead of using loading resistors between the S-TACT and the trafos, he has installed a passive analog HF filter of L & C after the secondaries that he claims has eliminated background HF noise/distortion. I will try this out myself and compare to the loading resistors. Is the problem you describe really related to overdriving the DAC, or rather related to HF noise that is particularly an issue in the 1st generation Sony SACD players?

Dave
