Overall, SACD is more Analog like, especially when compared to CD. Having a high end CD player can close that gap though. The quality of the SACDs can also be of varying quality. The best discs are just superb and quite enjoyable. BTW: I have the SCD-777ES and not the XA777ES.

NOSValves Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 ---------------- Carig did I have something in my ears when we were talking about the sony's ---------------- Nope I want something for my living room the Sony SCD-CE775 is hard to deal with compared to my 333ES on my main system mostly in redbook its pretty good with SACD. This upgrading is a real pain. I think the difference in all the current ES player is not huge there all good. Plus I would like a brnad new one to have SACDMods go through it rather then my 4 year old half wore out 333ES. Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkBK Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Smilin' False alarm on the 555's My contact had his numbers screwed up - these were NOT the SDCD555ES - Oh well!! Also, got your message too late to call you Saturday. How's that 777 sounding? I am trying a Philips 963SA - given a moderately good review from TAS (called is somewhat musical - warm and a little sloppy) Of course, they prefer the 5k to 20k players as usual.

HeavyDistortion Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 "I got the XA777ES, mint cond, sssssssssounds ggggggggreat, both redbook and sacd!!!!" Smilin', Congratulations on your purchase of an XA777ES. If you picked it up for $1000, you got an absolutely incredible deal. I paid $1500 for mine, and I think that I got an excellent deal. I'm glad that you're happy with the sound of the unit; now you know why I am so content with mine, as are most other XA777ES owners that I know.
