Are there any more good multi format disc players out there?

@brian27b nice player, I’ve heard of it. I don’t think it plays dvd-a, and it’s pretty much the same as my Panasonic DP-UB9000.

If you cant get yours fixed this might be your best option…

I’m really not interested in streaming. I like physical media. And does streaming really sound better? Don’t forget, I’m mostly interested in the high resolution capabilities of the player. I’m guessing the interface is a more direct one, with less places for it fail, but either way I prefer having something tangible. I wouldn’t rule out streaming as a casual option though.

I’d strongly encourage you to open your mind to streaming. With a decent streamer (as little as $400) your music can sound better than spinning disks and obviously is much more convenient. If you subscribe to Qobuz you’ll have access to a vast amount of music and all recordings are at least CD quality and much of it is in hi res. But, along with all those benefits, possibly the best aspect of streaming is that you’ll have access to worlds of new music that will allow you to experience incredible new music you probably never would’ve otherwise gotten to hear. To me, this is the most exciting and rewarding thing that’s happened in music in my 57 years as every day I get to explore and hear awesome new music that has expanded my audiophile world exponentially. Due respect, I think you’re misguided in thinking that streaming music would be good for just casual listening. The fact is, I rarely spin a disc these days because most of my music is already on Qobuz (and sounds better), but beyond that it’s just much more fun and exciting to find and experience new music than just play the same stuff all the time. FYI, I just got an iFi Zen Stream for $399 (along with their iPowerX power supply) and it hands down sounds better than spinning CDs. You could also look at something like the Innuos Zen Mk3 (around $2400) and get an even better streamer and be able to load all your CDs into its internal memory so all your music would be available in one spot from your chair and possibly even sound better as a result. Sorry to be a little long winded here, but I think you’re cheating yourself out of one of the best developments in audio ever so hoping you take some of these words to heart and get onboard. Anyway, hope this helps and best of luck.

@soix still skeptical that streaming at 300kbps or so sounds better than DSD or 192/24 dvd-a, but as I said, I’m not against trying a reasonably priced streamer at some point. I’m always open to trying new audio.

I have a streamer and a Esoteric SACD player.  The SACD player gets full use, the streamer sits in the rack covered with dust. I like the physical disks much better and my CD’s sound much more analog sounding. 

@stereo5 Out of curiosity what is your current streaming setup?
