Xindak SCD-2 Tube SACD player advice.

Thank you Tvad, based on what info I did find and what was sent to me privatly, being mostly positive with no horor stories, I think I will try this player. There is product support for players bought from authorized dealers.
Thank you JD, when I get burned in I'll have to post an amature review. I'm going to run mine unmodded with upgraded tubes for a while.

Enjoy the machine. We'll look forward to your review.

I just bought a Xindak SCD-2 also, and love it. I only paid $800 (includes $ mods) for a brand new unit with a M-cap Oil/Silver coupling cap upgrade (www.coemaudio.com) I replaced the stock feet with Vibrapods, Converted it to 110v AC, lined the inside of the chassis cover with dampening material, and lastly I replaced the tubes with some NOS Tesla's. The sound I am getting is angelic. I sit and laugh when I listen to my system because I know that there are poor brainwashed slobs out there that have paid thousands more to get near the sound I am getting. I would also put my Xindak SCD-2 up against ANY other stock player in the $4K-5K range without hesitation.
NOTE: The initial units did have a firmware issue that has since been cleared up. All SCD-1/2's coming out of the factory have new firmware...My unit tracks flawlessly...

Thanks Xindak, for proving that paying out the A$$ is not a prerequisite for quality...

I recently auditioned the Xindak scd2 with improved power cord and NOS tubes. It is a very good player. In direct comparison to my Cary 306/200, in the same system configuration, the Cary won out against sacd's and cd's each and every time. The Xindak on the used market is still an incredible value.
