Sony's New SACD Player

I just read about Sony's new top-of-line SACD player in Twice magazine. It will have Firewire output for all channels. This will enable it to go directly into their new processor digitally. It will also have advanced copyright protection in addition to Watermarking. Other firewire enabled processors should follow.

Sony's top processor/amp will be 4500.00 and will be capable of 9.1 channel output and 3 zones. The SACD player will be 3000.00.

In my opinion, two is best in most cases.

Well, it's the same watermarking that's on SACD now.

Yes. Your processor must have the firewire input with SACD decoding otherwise, you will have to use the analog inputs for SACD. The 1394 DTCP digital connector has been adopted as the Scarlet Book spec for the SACD standard.
