Bargain Priced SACD Giant Killer?

I think my SCD-1 is very good and beautifully made, but at the end of the day, I am listening to digital less and less, other than from my PC.

So I am thinking about recycling some of its resale value into a turntable, and building up a WAF file music server.

If I were to sell my SCD-1, is there anything that will give me 75% + of the sound on a budget, albeit without the gorgeous build quality?

whatever.....no beef with trl....never heard one...

it is a shame how a great post can "obviously" be used for the over promotion of a product..

the question is...
did you read the original post ?
do you understand the context of the original post ???
do you think maybe, just maybe the the posts might be percived as a "excessive" promotion of trl products..

the interest i have in sacd (in the original context) that the cwlondon intiated the thread ( ie secondary player that is inexpensive..) if the trl modded player fits that desription, then i owe you and others a sincere apology...

if the trl player doesnt fit the context of the original post....then maybe...just maybe.. the king isnt wearing any clothes....not to mention who is full of blatently "shameless hiding intentional tactics"

btw, just in case you missed that one.... take the first letter of each word..

Try APL 563A, or check out David Schulte from the upgrade company, I have heard a few of his modded machines, in my system, and they were VERY good too. BTW TRL has great sound too, but, there are MANY more choices. Most modders will transform any average machine, into a fine digital player. This is just MHO here.

I think that Mike Singer mistook Bon Aranyi's excitement and happiness of his treatment as a promotion post, which seems a little strange.

There are many choices ... thank God there are. One house sound will not please everyone, as evidenced at various "shootouts" in the past. 2003 VSAC is/was a good example.

Thankfully, we have choices and live in a free society, where folks are welcomed to share their opinions, openly, in a free, (yet moderated) forum.

Best,

Every time I hear your question, I am both fascinated and confused.

Why would this preclude other people from giving their opinion on high value per dollar SACD players?

In any case, you dont have to be Sherlock Holmes to deduce

a) the original MSRP of an SCD-1
b) what I might have paid for it
c) what I could sell it for now

I have NO budget. None. I can spend whatever I want or as little as I want. I just wanted to hear peoples opinions.

PS

Are you a dealer?

cheers
