This review is from: Yamaha BD-A1000 Blu-ray Disc Player, Black (Electronics)
I previously purchased the Yamaha Aventage RX-A1000 AVR so I decided to go with this player as at the time I was pretty sure I was going to go to a 3D TV soon. My life has been busy the last few years and I amm not totally up on all of the latest. As I was going through setting up the player and reading the owner's guide I noticed that it played Super Audio CDs whatever they are. So I did some hunting for SACD sources and tried a sampler called the World's Greatest Audiophile Vocal Recordings on the Chesky Records label. Well unlike Bill's world famous hamburgers that no one has every heard of these tracks are fantastic in their clarity and musicality. Everyone that hears this disc is thoroughly impressed. I have quite a few SACDs now and they give high quality vinyl a run for its money. This is an impressive deck with lots of capability including multichannel SACD soon to be tried in my listening room. I would buy it again.
