Do SACD player start up slower

What's 20-35 seconds longer to cue up a cd as long as the player is functioning properly? If it takes that long to hear the best possible sound, so be it with pleasure! My Marantz 8300 takes 10-20 seconds or so. I've spent much more than that on this thread! It sill beats the 20 seconds to 2 minutes prepping vinyl for play. Please all enjoy the music!

All of the following 4 units have spent auditoning time in my rack. My SCD-1 was the slow......est for the TOS to load, you could watch the leaves on the tree's go thru a change color before the first track would play! The Sony scd-333/555 5 disc changers are the fastest of the Sony ES Sacd stable. The Philips Sacd-1000 was the fastest, yet sound quality wise it wasn't up to par w/ the Sony's.

I just timed my sony XA777es for you. With tray open it took 2 seconds for the tray to close and 10 more seconds for play to begin.

My SCD-1 is located across the listening room. The long delay gives me time to walk back to the couch, sit down, take a sip from my glass of wine and relax before the music starts. Perfect! Much better than playing an LP, when the music always starts while I'm still on the run.
