The dvd8400 is a very good dvda player. I thought cd was pretty good and sacd sounded similar to cd but clearly not as good as the sa11s1. Considering you could probably find one for a couple hundred bucks it's still a good value, even for just playing cds. It doesn't do bass management but I find the passive crossover on my sub works just fine.
I guess it's inevitable that I will get a DAC at some point to play downloads and streaming. Maybe it's my age but I still find spinning a disc to be the most convenient way to listen to music.
I didn't know you could rip a dvda. Does that require special software? What I would really like is to make my own dvda from a hirez download.

I ripped all my DVD-As using this:

Also my Classic Records DADs and HDADs.

I use a Pioneer Elite 59-AVi for DVD duty only! It is a killer.

It was recommended on the Linn web site. Did a test with Protools recording software that I use in a novice home studio setup. My skills are lacking to make any real evaluation but I was able to make a 24/96 dvda. Next will be a hirez download. Only using the free trial for right now.
Thanks! for sharing.
Thank You- guys for all of the info on Marantz.
My main Silver Disk Spinner is a DV-9600 Multi-Disk Spinner I picked up used on ebay a couple years ago for about $350 and it arrive virtually germ free as the guy no longer used it because it didn't do BluRay.
But even with this DVD player, Ken Ishiwata took the time to put his magic touch on the audio section, shutting down the video circuitry when playing music alone. It uses the same Cirrus Logic CS4398 DAC chip as his now-legendary KI Pearl.
Ivan-
I wonder if the DV-9500 has some, possibly all, of the tributes of your DV-9600 ?
Thanks! Ivan.
anyone using a SA-15 S2?
I would love to own a KI Pearl spinner!
