Get a universal DVD player, plays everyting. You can get one for under $125.If I could afford a SACD player then I'd buy them.
I did my own auditions and found most that modern sources are pretty advanced
even for budget consumer grade stuff. Good electronics was hard to get 20-30
years ago, but his is year 2006, replicating audio is simple on the source level.
I have no idea why people think 20hz - 20khz is hard to reproduce when we have
semiconductors able to operate in gigahertz range. Audio electronics is a mature
science today. The real key to success is the speakers. Even Earl Geddes agrees if
you don't believe me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif I've listened to SACD, it's no big deal, to me it's just a
hair less noisy than CD. DVD-A is nothing special either.
Spend your most of your money on speakers and adequate power, then room
treatments.
