Multi-Channel Music: SSP/PrePro with Time Delay?..

I'm looking for a SSP/PrePro that offers Time Delay adjustment for the surround channels (due to space restrictions for SL & SR). Budget is not an issue at this point. Does one exist? Thanks.

My Rotel 1066 has it, as does the Pioneer DV45A and Denon 2900 players that I have. However, no such adjustment is implemented for SACD. Why? Go ask Sony.

I had the impression that the SACD spec did not allow for this feature. It does seem that delay of the signal would be technically difficult if it is not in PCM (word) format.I will look into it some more.

As I mentioned, there are technical reasons why SACD cannot offer the variable delay feature. (Another point for DVD-A).
