On a slightly more obtainable level, you can have a Sony DVP-s9000ES upgraded with a step attenuator, not by any means in the same league as the accuphase set up but seeing as it would be more then 26k less, I felt it was worth mentioning. I was nearly ready to go that direction, until something better came along(cough-Accuphase-cough). The step attenuator upgrade is around $250 but you will need to get at least a level one upgrade with it, which is another $500, but worth every penny. You could also get a placette passive pre-amp, which may not be what you want to do, but is another option. Good luck-Tim
Any SACD players with variable ouputs?
I'm toying with the idea of picking up an SACD player. Not particularly interested in multi-channel - two channel is preferable to me. What I want, though, is one which has variable analog outputs (volume control) so that I can feed my amp directly without the use of a preamp. This is the configuration I run in now, and I much prefer it over using a preamp.
Anyone know of such a player?
