I just received my Marantz SA-11S1. The first thing which I recognized is the rather loud noise which comes from the transport/laser when I play a SACD/CD. I was wondering if this is normal. I have an older Sony which is dead quiet. Perhaps this is normal with the newer units.
I have the same noise from my SA11. According to Marantz this is normal for this unit. It is however slightly disconcerting - otherwise, a fantastic machine.
