Sony's New SACD Player

I just read about Sony's new top-of-line SACD player in Twice magazine. It will have Firewire output for all channels. This will enable it to go directly into their new processor digitally. It will also have advanced copyright protection in addition to Watermarking. Other firewire enabled processors should follow.

Yes thats my "be careful what you wish for" thought, because first you buy the player, than you have to upgrade your DAC, your talking a big piece of change !

Sony's top processor/amp will be 4500.00 and will be capable of 9.1 channel output and 3 zones. The SACD player will be 3000.00.

9.1 channels? Is it like front left, front centre, front right...., attic, cellar, bath, and kitchen??

Folks, more (speaker) boxes mean more problems! Can't we be happy with two (like ONE wife and ONE mistress :)

Cheers,
