I really think you'll enjoy the player Bill. It aint vinyl, but I have found SACD extremely musical and listenable - smokes redbook from what I have heard in my system and even on stupid expensive CD players in other systems. I have the Sony 777ES in my main system and CE775 in a second system and even though I still primarily listen to vinyl, I'm am enjoying music on SACD more and more - can NOT say that for seedee.I've probably got about 50 SACDs now and could bring a bunch to Lima - let me know what titles people would like to hear and if I have them, I'll bring em.
