    It runs Sony's single SACD D/AC if I recall, and is very similar to the ES level changers in terms of features. The ES level has more internal changes than external.

    It should sound real good, as the <200 Single Disc transport sounds real good.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Ok, Thanks I have to check the specs on that, and get back to you.

    Thanks.

    BTW using the sony 300 CD changer now and love it. Just looking to be able to listen to SACD disk and keep everything the same size so to speak.

    I checked / downloaded the manual, and can say this. I think it's not what I was looking for. I like the 300 CD changer from Sony with it Groups / Shuffle playback, this model doesn't look like anything like that.

    So with a 20 DVD collection and a Future super CD collection what does one do?



    :(
