I've needed an SACD player since I sold my SCD-555ES so I picked up this MVP-861 for a very reasonable price. I think it needs a new laser because it seems to only read the redbook layer of hybrid discs. But, it does sound very good.

Jon.......Are you selecting the SACD layer by pressing the far left SACD/CD button?

No, I thought the player would automatically select it.

Jon.......Give this a try. With no CD in the CD tray and the tray drawer closed, press the CD/SACD button until the display shows SACD. After that the player should play both without further intervention. It will first look for the SACD layer, and if not found it will play the CD layer. Try an SACD, then try a CD. Let me know if it works.

Thanks Dan, the only selections are:
  • Multi
  • CD
  • Stereo
I changed the setting to stereo, we'll see what happens.

Edit: Thanks Dan, worked like a charm.

Default Jon's (JMT) modest system

Jon:

Are those record storage cabinets the ones by Gothic or another company? I just bought something similar. If mine come out like that I'll be very happy.

Nice modest (cough...cough) system!!

Jon.......Your sound system has taken a very nice step up. The Esoteric K-03, Lyra Delos cartridge, and the Sonus Faber Venere 3.0 loudspeakers raised the bar substantially. Your sound system is looking and no doubt sounding very good. Congratulations on assembling a sweet rig. .
