News help choosing a SACD Player / transport


I am very satisfied with my actual system and I like specially my Lampizator DAC sound.

On the other hand, I have some SACD discs which I have ripped, but I feel I do not get same quality when listening to them using a Esoteric player, that a friend has lent for testing if I find differences with the ripped files.

Please, need advice on a SACD player or transport that I could connect to my DAC USING the SACD layer (DSD)

Price is not the main driver although I prefer staying under $5000 and used gear is acceptable.

try Teac VRDS-701T

that’s what i use and love it. SACD redbook layers sound really fine.

With the new UHQCD process, are SACD becoming unessessary?  I like that UHQCDs do not require special equipment.  Any CD player will do.

Lots of confusion in the advice you are getting!

I don't think you have stated what model Lampizator DAC you have?

My guess is that it handles a maximum of two channels, and probably has no HDMI input?
