My Vecteur L4,2 cd player(using transport)and Chord Dac64 combo superior than Krell sacd standart s sacd performance
(only the soundstage depth is somewhat better on sacd)unless I do not play early 90s redbook records,after 2000, redbook record technology improved so much, and most XRCD records are
put most sacd records in a shame.
Recently I have packed my Krell and bought a budget dvd-a player to use its digital out for my dac64 s second BNC input (Vecteur uses first BNC input) getting 24x96 resolution (however Chord makes it 64x....)and tested 4 dvd-a records,the result is really fantastic,I do not miss sacd sound.
PS: I had used Sony xa777es before Krell
