Which player has all this????


I am trying to find a tubed player that can do SACD, has balanced outputs, upsampling, and a preamp with volume control. Budget new or used is around 3000.00, but can go higher. I am currently using Denon 3910 (no mods)through a Sunfire Theatre Grand II processor, Classe seven hundred monos, and B&W 800N. Current sound is a bit bright and grainy. I am trying to fix that. Does this CDP exist?
baffled
The new McIntosh MCD201 and Audio Aero Prestige but I think both are much more than $3000.
I think that there are balanced mods available to the 3910, but I do not know about the volume control. Check with exemplar and apl.
Might look at some modshops that maybe still work on the 3910 (maybe APL or Modwright) as I think they can handle your needs.
