Modwright XA-5400ES COMPLETE TRUTH MOD plus upgraded tubes would put you in the mid $4k area. Performance does not get any better...different, maybe but not better!
Best SACD/CD player
I know I'm old school, but at this late date, December 2015, what's the best spinner that will do both CD and SACD, under $10k
Short list so far is Exoteric K-05X, Marantz SA11-S3 and I don't know what else.
