I have a Sony SCD-XB770 SACD player. What would you like to know?

A few of the high end magazines like stereophile say that the biggest advantage to these players is running the multiple dacs in parallel while in 2 channel mode. There was an article that featured the opinions on multichannel music from 4-5 high end retailers in NYC. It was an interesting article. The consensus was that 2 channel would remain the high end playback preferance while multichannel would mainly be adventageous for low to mid/upper level and video. Other articles have pointed towards running all the dacs for 2 channel operation. Great results apparently.

It won't be long before 'Blue-Ray' becomes standard and, in my opinion, both SACD and DVD-A will be no more. Both these formats use compression in one form or another except I think DVD-A when using MLP (Meridian Lossless Packaging) Blue-Ray can store 25Gb per layer. Therefore one normal looking disc will be able to store 100Gb. Who the f%$k needs compression then. My advice By a cheapy if you machine is bust, or wait..........................
