I agree with Dan. Why not add another format to your system. I listen to digital and vinyl and enjoy both. More often it is records I turn to, but that's not to say there aren't numerous seedees that I love as well. If you don't spend another penny on your analog front end, you will have a cheap source of good music that you cannot find on CDs or SACDs, and by your own admission it is the equal of your Sony. So what's the downside for you? More good music at bargain basement prices is definitely the upside.
