Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday!


I've been hearing and reading all I can about this player during this last year. I have a 6005 right now and it's a nice player but not as good as my analog rig (10k) so it's not a fair comparison. Elizabeth mentioned that her SA-10 is better than her analog. I will be comparing the 2 SACD players side by side. I have at least 3 CD's in which I have duplicates. I'm fascinated about how the circuitry upsamples to DSD SACD. Well not exactly but somehow an improvement over Redbook CD. I have a 2" thick maple block coming in the same day for it. It's going to be a long weekend. I know it can't work miracles on all CD's. If there is jitter in the recording then supposedly you will never get that out. Speak up if I'm wrong about that.

Yes! I've been out over 3 months for surgery. The unit has been playing non-stop 70 percent of the time and idle some. I'm in a unique situation where I could hear it break in from day to day. I've listened to a ton of music. More than I've ever had in any 3 month period.

Thank You for the update. After 200 hours the player will really open up and sing.  It only gets better from here. Hope you are well and make a full recovery soon. Looking forward to your next incremental update.

Happy Listening!

Hope you are recovering well and enjoying the music on your SA-10. Tell me about the latest hours on your player.  Happy Listening!

@elizabeth ,If it had XLR outs, I would have got one immediately after selling the Oppo UDP-205 that I currently have.
