TRL Marantz Sa-14

Oldpet-

You are killing me, man.
I can't wait. It will be a couple weeks before I get mine.
It isn't getting shipped to TRL until next week :(

Oldpet: A friend has the TRL SA-14 V1 and I completely understand your excitement, it is a wonderful player. His only complaint is that he stays up too late listening ... (perhaps his Wifes complaint too?)

Lkdog: at least you are one step ahead of me. I'm still waiting on the new 11's. If Oldpet keeps posting, I'll be looking for a 14 ASAP. :}

I am in complete agreement about one thing and its not about the sa-11 vs the sa-14 or is the sa-14 better in balance mode or not, its the freeken fact that I also find myself getting less sleep. I have never had a digital front end deny me sleep before. Add to this there is no "on/off" on the Sony so it just sits there and stares back at me like a sweet puppy dog.

Sorry men - didn't mean to cause undue stress. :-)
Lkdog - Hang in there. I think you will find the wait to be well worth it. So smooth and non fatiguing, (in my system) Just a pleasure! You'll see.
Jes45 - I must say - i don't think you would be disappointed with an Sa-14. But, i do understand the desire to have the latest and greatest. :-) I would have bought an SA-11, and sent that to TRL too. But funds said otherwise. I guess it all worked out though, since i do love the way this thing sounds.

All - Yes - I too am sleeping less these days. I've often found myself drifting off to the sounds of J.T. or Holly Cole. Things could be worse, ya know. :-)

Be patient men! Good things come to those who wait. :-)

Paul plans to be done with my SA14 in the next couple of days.... can't wait!
