thanks for all your help. i own a berkeley, and an esoteric player. i have misc dacs including rega so i am familiar with redbook on expensive and less expensive dacs. i simply did not know whether the format of sacd would be similar regardless of price point, or whether a player from ayre for example would be significantly better than a less expensive player like oppo. the surrounding system in this case will be mcintosh and revel studio 2. in other words, when do you get to the point of diminishing returns on sacd players, as i know that spending more up to apoint gets better results up to a lot of dollars (weiss, bel canto , berkeley etc.)
are all sacd players the same?
A little technical help for the unenlightened please. I f i want to add another sacd player(i have quite a few discs) does the actual quality of the player matter as much as the ability to play the format? I know that a cd dac at 1000$ is going to be pretty different than a Berkeley or similar at 5k. the question is whether those types of rules hold true on the format change. (Is an oppo sacd going to sound significantly worse than an ayre, for example, at 6k.) thanks mike
