I´m thinking about upgrading my 951 to 991. Any opinions about 991?
Thank you.
Thank you.
I think there are currently much more DVD-Audio software than SACD
I don't know about relative availability in Spain, but worldwide, there are far more titles available on SACD than DVD-Audio. I read about a week ago or so that there were around 150 titles out on DVD-Audio. By contrast, there are over 500 titles available on SACD. In any event, I understand your concerns about a "format war". I bought into both formats by buying an inexpensive DVD-Audio player. You could always buy the Panasonic DVD-RV71 for DVD-Audio, which has gotten good reviews in the British magazines. I don't think it is too expensive. Of course, it could serve as a DVD-Video player as well. Alternatively, you could buy the Pioneer DV-747A "universal" player, which plays both SACDs and DVD-Audio discs. I don't how good an audio component it is, however. Finally, as I said before, if the 'XA333ES is a great CD player to your ears, SACD is a bonus. Don't worry about buying into SACD early if the 'XA333ES is a great CD player. No matter what happens to SACD, it will still play your CDs.
