Pioneer PD-S06 or Sony SCD-XA3000ES?

novec · 17th February 2008, 06:37 PM

I got both on hand for about the same price, but I'm not sure what to go with. I'd like the ability to play SACD, but it's not important. Output stage isn't very important either, I have a zapfilter that'll most likely take its place. The DAC itself is important right now, but within the next six months of so, it'll pretty much be transport only.

I've found many good words on the pio here, but nada on the XA3000. Does it suck, or is it just not a frequently modded animal?

I might have a lead on the newer PD-D6-J at a few bucks more, but I'm not too sure about it.

Never mind, I got the PD-S06. Nice transport, might stick in some PCM1794s I got laying around.
