Already got my Cambridge Audio Azur 651BD for my birthday last month, so I'll buy SA-CDs for Christmas -- many from my wish list.

I'm thinking of the Oppo BDP-105 too, and, if I can find a reasonably priced one, the Mobile Fidelity Holst Planets (Walter Susskind) SACD. Agreed, multi-region is the only way to go for me for the Oppo ...

I can sell you one for $100. Is that reasonable?

For the Oppo? I'd say a flippin' miracle at that price, they're £1500 over here.

I think he might have been referring to the Susskind Planets from MoFi for $100.........but I could be wrong!

Rammie, an hour ago I bought myself my early Christmas present...

An Onkyo PR-SC886 multichannel pre/pro!! (Laughably cheap pre-owned price!)

DSD input capability

Audyssey MultEQ XT

7.1 XLR outputs for my Nagra power amplifier

...Your crystal ball was right all along!

I may attempt a small 4.0 setup when it arrives, but the real fun will start when I move house in the new year and add some good rear amplifiers and speakers.

So Rammie, where were you when Nagraboy went multichannel?? ;)

I hope to have the Sonore exD DSD DAC by Christmas time.

In the shower......coming clean.

Nagraboy, my main system is 4.0 with built in subs (so 4.1) and I'm very happy with it. As long as you properly image your front speakers, you will get a convincing center phantom channel.

Best of luck. There's no turning back, now!

Ah, Pinot noir, the Russian Roulette of wines. This could be heaven or this could be hell... For an indulgence I turn to Rioja, especially 1998 Campo Viejo.

My own xmas indulgence will be getting my components out of their shipping containers and arranged in our new digs, a perfect 'Golden Pond' lakeside home, but less spacious than the old farmhouse we left.

Yep, the Susskind.
