I'll go with that as I own a 95EU

I doubt you'll see one secondhand though as frankly I can't imagine what the hell you could upgrade to?

I might have something that'll be your bag at a decent price Joe

I have a Sony BDP-S550 which is region free on DVD & multiregion on blu ray. I just need to find out if it'll spin SACD & DVD-A, though it has the full complement of 7.1 outputs as well as squirting them out via HDMI connection.

I bought it new & obviously it hasn't been abused. Box, remote etc..

I'll get back to you once I have found out if it can do what you want

cool thanks Mark.

Bugger, it's not looking promising

There is no mention on the box of either DVD-A or SACD, I'll find the manual & see what that says

Meanwhile when I find that SME headshell it still yours as promised

I don't tend to forget things like that

My BDP-S300 doesn't play SACDs. Crazy for a Sony player

Luckily, I don't need it to.
