New Lux SACD unit

@milpai 
I would refer you the Larry Greenhill review in Stereophile as my experience is fairly similar.  Previously I was listening to my SACD via my Oppo 105 in 2 channel .  Compared to the Oppo the dynamic range and soundstage have both noticeably increased.  The midrange in particular is superbly natural.  I was listening to Ralph Vaughn Williams 8 th Symphony-a Chandos  SACD with Richard Hickok conducting the London Symphony-and I had a "you are there" moment during the slow movement-everything was so beautiful and natural.
  There is a lot more detail, but not in a clinical, x Ray kind of manner.  When I go a live Concert, I am always struck by how much more Orchestral detail I detect on works that I thought I knew cold.  There are always details of percussion and subsidiary themes from the other instruments that even the best playback and recordings obscure.  With the Bryston it's all there, but not unnaturally highlighted

@mahler123,
Thanks for sharing your experience. It looks like the new Oppo 205 would be my upgrade path for now, and eventually the Bryston, since it accepts HDMI.

@rpeluso,
Did not mean to derail your thread. I checked OnAHigherNote site and this player seems fairly new. Interesting. What was your previous player? Looks like I might get to hear the Luxman at AXPONA this year.

Please pardon one more BDA-3 digression.  I have a Sony XA5400ES which has an HDMI output.  Has anyone tried running the 5400ES through the BDA-3.  I am thinking of getting the the BDA-3 to attach to a streamer but if I could improve my 5400ES that would be a bonus.  The BDA-3 does accept DSD doesn't it?

milpai, I had a Marantz 8001 as a placeholder until I got this new unit. My main system has a Lux D-06, probably 5 years old or so, feeding a Lux 509u integrated feeding Vandersteen 5A speakers, also have a TT that is rarely used. I have been going for simplicity the last years, too many boxes, connections, etc. and have no regrets, I love the sound in each room, both wonderful set ups (I think). I got the D-05u without hearing it, not knowing much about it, however am very familiar with the D-06 so I took the chance, and have the possibility now of using the new player to play back music from a lap top, if I ever decide to go that way. One addition, I have been told that Phillip and On A Higher Note may not be Lux importers any longer, and that makes me sad, he was very helpful to me when I got the units for the main system.

rpeluso,
I used to own the Marantz SA8260 for a number of years and am familiar with the Marantz house sound. Can you please compare and contrast the Marantz 8001 Vs the 2 Luxmans? What about the differences between the 2 Luxmans? The D-06 seems to be much more pricier piece of equipment.
BTW, it looks like you have a nice setup. You should post some pics.
