What would be a good SACD player for my tube audio system in your opinion? I
would like to enjoy the full benefits of the SACD format without spending a
king' ransom. Thanks in advance.

Cordially,

I'll give you my usual recommendation....it is very hard to beat Sony's
XA2000ES pure-DSD (in direct mode) at any price under $2000...and it costs
only about 15% of that on eBay. I use one with an ARC tube preamplifier and
the sound is gorgeous. The SACD player is as transparent as any on the
market...not as smooth perhaps as some of the super-expensive gear, but very
very good. At a price under $300 you can get started and decided for
yourself whether good enough is good enough. For me it was and is.

I always try. :-) It annoys me as a reader (as well as if I'm the poster)
when people ignore a simple request's parameters and go off on a long
pontificating rant or promotion.

Unh, like you are prone to do Harry?

Thanks for showing your ****iness again, Arny, by cutting and changing the
meaning of the lines above withou any indication to the reader. You are
truly a dishonest man.

Thank's Hairy for, admitting Harrye that your incompetence in the debating
trade is as mementose as your hatred of modernitty Harey.
