In Reply to: Are You Using An Unmodded SACD Player For CD Also? posted by Robertc88 on March 30, 2007 at 06:07:57:
I bought my player back in 2000 mainly for CD playback. I listened to a lot of dedicated CDPs in the same price range, and this one had the sound I wanted (I'm not claiming it sounded better than others, just had the right sound for me). It was a bonus that it was also a progressive scan DVD player, and SACD playback was a mere novelty.The main reason I'm posting this, is because this model has taken a beating on the boards for being unreliable. Like many folks, I had to replace the laser assembly back in 2003 (~$90), but I've had no other problems with this unit whatsoever.
You can likely score one of these pretty cheaply at auction. Do note that it supports two channel SACD playback only, so if you're looking for MCH SACD, you'll need to look elsewhere.
