Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday!

I've been hearing and reading all I can about this player during this last year. I have a 6005 right now and it's a nice player but not as good as my analog rig (10k) so it's not a fair comparison. Elizabeth mentioned that her SA-10 is better than her analog. I will be comparing the 2 SACD players side by side. I have at least 3 CD's in which I have duplicates. I'm fascinated about how the circuitry upsamples to DSD SACD. Well not exactly but somehow an improvement over Redbook CD. I have a 2" thick maple block coming in the same day for it. It's going to be a long weekend. I know it can't work miracles on all CD's. If there is jitter in the recording then supposedly you will never get that out. Speak up if I'm wrong about that.

Hey I see my name. Listening to my SA-10 right now.Playing CDs in a $40 bought on eBay five disc changer, to a $125 Toslink to the Marantz.Some folks think I am other people? I can't help if I seem to be "Where's Waldo" of the audio World. Fascinating to think I have Doppelgangers.

So if there is any jitter in any transport the DAC will remove it? I didn't know that.

I think if the receiving device reclocks the signal it ’might’ be able to reduce the jitter. My stating this is only speculation from reading a few bits via Google (Not really reading in depth)It is an issue I do not care much about. (preferring to listen to the end result rather than speculate about stuff I do not deeply understand)And apparently is it easier to dejitter single bit data. like DSD.                                              
Also I was thinking further on the idea that a Woman has to be known who she is at all times (IE the A.A. moniker thing). So all the others there can be anonymous, but for some reason, folks freak out that a Woman wants to be anonymous? A few members there take great pleasure in claiming they ’found’ Elizabeth. Did that person do anything criminal? Fraud? no, just because they think she should be fully labeled, is all I can guess. NO one else there gets dragged out and labelled. So I assume it is some sort of Macho thing going on? Also, if I was doing that, why just there? Why not everywhere? You would have to ask the guys on A.A. who hunt for Elizabeth for some answer. I have none. LOL
