In Reply to: Without SACD you are not playing in the top echelon. Period end of story. posted by Norman Tracy on May 13, 2005 at 16:10:24:
The problem is, that he has no SACDs. Unless the SACD catalog has alot of music he wishes to own(or duplicate), I don't see the point of going in that direction. It will never be the dominant media. Period.
Superior technology is useless, if you don't like the software.
As for your praise in another post of the Levinson #39, I find it misplaced. I own the ML#39, and can honestly say that is isn't even close to competative with redbook players in the $3K range in today's market. That's why they came out with the 390. I also find it interesting that this CDP hasn't been replaced before now. I'm not convinced, that yellowwwwducky's references are up to date.This whole thread has a *TwilightZone* feel for it. Replacing a 10 year old CDP with what may be state of the art, but being more concerned for visual aesthetics than sonics? This reminds me of your statement, "Spending a ton-o-bucks on a system comprised exclusively of class AAAA recommended flavors of the month is essentially a guaranty of run from the room screaming bad sound.". Afraid a niche technology that he has no software for will make his purchase obsolete, while living with an obsolete CDP? Am I the only one who finds this BIZARRE?
Interesting indeed.
