I don't know about the Sony. But a dedicated SACD player will out do the universal players. I performed a A/B on Marantz 7600 and SA8260. Ended up with the SA8260 without any questions.
dedicated SACD player
I already have a NAD cd player (521i) with 20bit DAC conversion for redbook cds and a Panasonic S97 for DVD-Audio. There are some titles in SACD that I would like to get, thus I need a SACD player. I am very interested in the Sony SCD-CE595. It is a dedicated SACD player (not a DVD) and you can get it at $1000 on a universal player, so my question is: should I stick with this Sony player that has gotten good reviews or get a better SACD player, like a Denon, Marantz, Onkyo in the $300-500 range? Would I hear a difference? Is it worth it? Thank you!
