Marantz SA-KI Ruby SACD Player


If anyone is still interested in the Ruby SACD Player Music Direct just got a shipment in and they are still priced at $2995. From what I was told they are brand new in box with full warranty. I ordered one and hope to receive it by Friday or Saturday. I just thought I'd give you guys a heads-up.

I left mine on 24/7 the first week or so,  then used standby..I know the Aesthetix CD Player still burns-in while in standby...

I stand corrected on the Marantz warranty. It looks like the Marantz Reference still carries the 5 year (3 year on laser assemblies) warranty. The warranty information enclosed with my Ruby says 3 years on both. I guess the Ruby isn't considered part of the Reference Line.

I like Marantz, but I would be hesitant to buy from a company that doesn't support their stuff with parts.

Nice score on the Ruby. Can you speak about the issue(s) of the SA-11S3 ?

 

Happy Listening!

 Re: the warranty, this is from MD website:

Graced by a laser-engraved "Ken Ishiwata" signature on the top of the front panel and copper-plated chassis, SA-KI Ruby delivers on the profound possibilities always promised by CDs and SACDs. Marantz's five-year parts-and-labor warranty and our 100% Music Direct Guarantee crown a signature piece meant for singular listeners.
