I'm toying with the idea of picking up an SACD player. Not particularly interested in multi-channel - two channel is preferable to me. What I want, though, is one which has variable analog outputs (volume control) so that I can feed my amp directly without the use of a preamp. This is the configuration I run in now, and I much prefer it over using a preamp.
The Prestige, a player to be introduced in December by Audio Aero, will have SACD, multi-channel SACD, DVD/V, built-in Dolby Digital and DTS plus an analog volume control. It is rumored that it will cost about $8000.
Audio Aero will soon( hopefully) be coming out with an SACD player with a volume control called the Prestige. If the Capitole is any indication of what Audio Aero is capable of, the Prestige will be well worth an audition.
