I'm using the SA-10 in a second system without anything to compare to but I like everything I hear. There isn't anything I even nitpick about, which is rare. It seems detailed and smooth, both as a DAC and disc player. I wish I could compare with my Oppo 205.
I like it enough that I'd consider another one for that system, though.
If your SA-KI Ruby approaches the same performance I perceive from the SA-10, I can't imagine being less than pleased with it.
