Is there an SACD that can play cds well?

I've said it before, and will say it again. My SCD-1 is better on redbook cd's than any unit I've ever owned, including the Levinson combo. I have well over 1000 hours on it and this past winter, after finding "the perfect power cord" for my system, I have never once found myself wanting for something better. Then I play the SACD and I remember how much more there is. I have never once regretted my decision to buy this machine, and will be quite content waiting for the third generation to develop.

Excellant review Albert, I've found on my SCD-1 that the filters make a very distinct difference. I set-up by musical type, small jazz and vocal on filter 2 (my favorite) Classical on standard, large jazz on 4, rock on 1 or 4. My biggest problem is I'll forget to check and halfway into a disk I begin losing interest, if I figure it out the whole presentation becomes pleasing again once I switch filters. I'm glad you mentioned the filters, I know when I first began using with my player, it was the filters that I felt were the breakthrough in technology, and hopefully more choices become avalible or at least studied. Thanks again for the great job! J.D.
