I was about to buy the 8260 when Marantz replaces it with the 8001. It's too bad that Sony pulled the plug on SACD. Any comment on the survivability of SACD and DVD-A? My momentum just got shot thinking the piece would become a relic in about a year.
Any reviews on the Marantz 8001?
This is the replacement for the 8260. They have the same DACs, the 8001 is only 2 channel (8260 multi), 8001 toroid transformer, and hopefully the newer transport and laser pickup are more reliable than the hocus pocus they used for the 8260.
They still use the HDAM discrete LPF and low noise gain sections that the 8260 does.
I am very curious if this is an improvement on the 8260!
Thanks.
