I have a Wadia CD transport and DAC -- not at all shabby CD reproduction. Doesn't play SACD's of course. Recently bought a $129 Sony multiformat player. I compared two identical recordings in the two different formats. The Wadia/CD combo was only SLIGHTLY better than the Sony/SACD combo. Had the Sony cost $10K more, I bet it would have wiped the Wadia. Depressing, huh!?
SACD Player vs. CD Player in CD reproductions
I want to know if anybody could compare SACD players vs. CD Players when you listen CD.
I have a large CDs collections and I have many doubts if top SACD Players like Marantz SA-11S1, are better than top CD players from Musical Fidelity, Audiomeca or Audio Aero.
Unfortunally I can´t compare them and I don´t want to buy a top and expensive SACD Player if I will use it only for SACDs reproductions.
Up to the moment I use the Krell KPS20i Delta 9. It is excellent.
I will apreciate all your opinions and suggests.
