No longer sitting on the fence


I have been uanble to make up my mind about SACD. I have listened to the top Sony models and found them impressive but have decided to stay with Redbook. I have over 5K cds in my collection and I think this is the better choice for me. I currently own a Cary 306/200 player that is excellent but I am willing to pay more for that small improvement. I can't afford the dCS equipment and have been looking at the Audio Aero top model. I've looked at previous posts and for the most part they are positive. My biggest concerns are built quality, dependability and customer support. There seems to be an issue about a number of gray market units out there that the company won't support and I'm not real clear on the Mark 11 version with different chips. Any help would be appreciated.

With 5K CD's I would be wanting to perfect that old Redbook setup rather than get into the SACD Fray!

You know,most technologies do not get perfected until the next new tech comes along. Then it's keeping up with subtle changes. I read that somewhere and it seems to make sense. Analog playback has advanced alot after Digital came on the scene.Now TT's are so expensive I can get a killer used TT for practicly a dime on the dollar.

Someone posted that a Dual TT was junk and to take any offer on it.I have a Dual TT and consider it a pretty fair TT for the $$. They do not make them anymore and that is fine.Kinda like a collectors piece.
