Who said you could use the left and right 5.1 jacks to play stereo CDs? That'd be an interesting link to look at since it is certainly NOT that way on my player.
Also...the $1760 was before shipping. Paid $1820.01 with overnight shipping.
I probably won't be upgrading ANYTHING else for a long while. This thing broke the bank...and then some. But I'm sure I'll be looking around for some cords regardless.
On a whim, I threw in the Peter, Paul & Mary Greatest Hits redbook cd and was floored. Granted I only listend for a few minutes, but it sounded almost as good as an SACD. It was that good...and the recording is not that great. Listening to discs through my 300 disc changer, the CDP-CX350, is like listening to the music through a thin film of grim. The XA777ES reveals detail and dynamics that I didn't think exsisted on redbook cds! I am very impressed by this player.
