Or settling for a cheap one so as not to wear out the SACD player? Neither scenario appeals to me. My SACD will be worked like a mule, making sweet music. When and if it goes, it will be time for another, newer, even better DAC that I will put to daily use/work of singing for me again.
Accuphase doesn't have a standby power mode, or any sort of "30 minutes auto off" feature... does Luxman? I'm curious? Seems like Accuphase's philosophy implies they'd prefer you keep their stuff on long term anyway.
