I have had the Marantz SA 8004 for a month and have used it mostly on red book cds and an occasional sacd...I own the Magneplanar 1.7's and have been able to remove the 1 ohm resistor; it is a laid back(not in your face) player that images beautifully.....My purpose was primarily to play red book cds. I could not hear a difference between the 6004 player(which does not have sacd capability SA 8004) when playing red book cds )...The previous model existed for two years. They do have have three players between two and three thousand $ and those models seemed to be changed often. They hanve many universal cd player at many different prices but thought my best shot at fidelity was to get a simple two channel player. Just gets too complicated...Apparently the cd p;layers must be linked to your speakers...I just luckily blundered into this player.
