I use a Sony ES UBP-X1000ES and love it. Originally I used it solely for SACDs, but moved it into the HT when I got a dedicated SACD player. The picture is great, and 100% no issue with it's use. I would expect the same from a newer version at the top of the line.
What is the Bu-ray plauyer that you are using?
Anything suggestions about blu-ray players, I found some blu-ray players in this article, are you using one of them?
Or directly share yours with me

Sounds like @dwmaggie and I have something in common. Bought the Panasonic BD-UP 9000 when it debuted, about 3 years ago. It's trouble free and superb. Gets top reviews, esp for the price. Mine does play SACD. Also just upgraded my HT to mostly Magnepan - MMG-W and DWM's. Wonderful integrated sound has displaced my sub - it just gets in the way now. |
My Oppo 103 got moved permanently to the tv room when the 205 was released. I called Modwright and scored a demo version of the 205, "modified" to include an external, 1 tube power supply and a 2 tubes in the audio output stage of the base unit. Feeding my KHorns through a PrimaLuna EVO 400, the sound is plenty good enough for me. One thing: the 205 occasionally plays a track (usually track 7 or 8) over-and-over until I manually skip to the next song.....frustrating when it randomly occurs! Too bad the software updates have been discontinued....... |
