    I know that some of the Esoteric SCAD's are a little above your budget Robert, but I could not be happier with my Esoteric X-03. Maybe not the X series, but they do make a great product. Good luck to you my friend in what ever you select.

    I was going to suggest the Sony XA-5400ES SACD/CD at $1299 list, but the ModWright price is another $1995.

    Of course, they do say "This is THE BEST sounding CD/SACD modified player that ModWright has produced to date"

    http://www.modwright.com/modifications/15

    Drool!:eek:

    Sometime down the road when I upgrade my 2 ch. source again, the XA5400ES is probably what I'll end up going with.

    Then I can start dreaming about having those mods performed someday!!

    Damn this hobby!..lol

    so get the pro, if you do not you always will wish you had, you know it, but if budget is a concern get the lesser now and the newer one down the road, just gonna cost you a bit more in the long run.

    hey there are a bunch of wives here I have to steer a wide path from........my fear is they will find each other, band together and post a bounty so high one or these boys cant resist and slips hemlock in my drink at the next PF!!!!!!!:eek:
