absolutely agree, it all depends on the recording. i have some cds that sound decidedly better than the sacd equivalent.did you listen to the sony 777es or xa777es? two completely different players, with two completely different designs for cd playback ... the 777es converts PCM to DSD, the xa777es uses a completely different architecture.
my xa777es sounds better than all the arcams i have listened to. i can't find any cd player better than it that's lower in price. the denon dvd-a1 sounds slightly better, but it's around the same price. the linn unidisk sounds much better, but at twice the price.
i didn't really like the MF trivista all that much either. haven't heard the krell - that should be interesting.
