RE: Channel Classics getting out of SACD mostly

You have provided a link to the Sony part CXD2750AQ, which was an early sacd decoder chip. Your posting seems to indicate that the lack of this old chip is the a reason for the lack of "OEM sacd mechs".
So, I decided to look at the Service Manuals of my own sacd player, SA-8260, and also the much newer SA11-S2. The SA-8260 uses a CXD2752R decoder and the SA11-S2 uses the CXD2753R decoder.
I do not have service manuals for the SA11S3 player or the Oppo 105 player. But since these players are in current production they would have to have an sacd decoder chip of some kind that is in good supply.
So the sky hasn't really fallen yet, though it may have for some.

It's like now there is only one sacd pressing plant outside Japan and when that goes then there will be no more sacd discs.
