I auditioned a Marantz SA-10 SACD player this past week.
I am mainly interested in it for the fact it has Toslink and RCA digital inputs.
The Marantz SA-10 does the decoding in DSD, even for CD data.
I am not a big or even mild SACD user.
The main joy if the device is playing back CDs on another machine, and using the Marantz as a DAC.
Redbook never sounded so good.
I AM buying one. Just to play CDs through it from other machines!
I am just mentioning this to say do not overlook SACD machines in the quest for a great Redbook CD player.
