SACD/Redbook one-box solution?

I'm planning to have Dan Wright mod a Sony DP999ES with his tube stage. $700 for the player plus $1200 for the mod = $1900 for a machine that buy all accounts is marvelous. Warranty issues are addressed by Dan doing any required work and charging only for parts. Any comments? Any firsthand experience with this mod?

John Marks (of Stereophile and audiophile CD producer) uses the Marantz SA-14 SACD player for playback of his CD's.

He is excellent at answering e-amails.

I bought one to replace my older Krell setup. I am thrilled with mine.

I have the Marantz Sa14 ver2 and it is the best SACD/CD player I have had so far...My previous CD reference was Accuphase dp75...also this ver2 is a major improvement over ver1 as I hear and as was said in Japan.

You can't go wrong with the TriVista. Absolutely outstanding!

Audio Aero is coming out with a 1 box upsampling CD/SACD player.
