Hi,
I need a CD player that will read CD-Rs, as my DVD player doesn't most of the time. I would also like a good CD player that will incorporate good DACs to run it via analog cables to my Denon AVR-3801's inputs (currently using my Toshiba DVD player as a transport).
After the recent price drop in Canada on the Sony SCD-CE775, I'm considering this unit. I've browsed past threads rapidly, but I'd just like to make sure wether there's anything wrong with this unit.
It has bass management, which obviously is key, and I'm thinking the fact that it's an SACD player will mean 1) the added capability of playing SACDs (nice to have, not my priority) and 2) it must have good DACs, right?
Or am I totally wrong in assuming this? Are the DACs for CD playback and SACD playback different? Would I be better off saving a bit of money and going with a regular CD player? Or is this the great buy it seems like it is?
Thanks,
-Seb
