Amazing SACD Sound!

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is obviously a very expensive product, but it does an amazing job of bringing out audiophile level sound from SACD’s. It replaces a Sony 777ES whose laser stopped working and replacement units are no longer available.

It weighs close to 50 lbs, extremely well made, no plastic except on the remote. My only complaint is that it has secondary functionality to play music input from another device like an iPhone or iPod, but not from the most recent models, which is disappointing for a $7500 piece of equipment. Nice to know that my iPhone from two years ago would have worked! But if you want something to bring out the full separation and soundstage depth inherent in well-mastered SACDs, and the rest of your system is also up to the task, you won’t be disappointed in this product.

Superb for HD music

Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2020

Just spent a weekend listening to the SA10, strictly CDs and SACDs. My first impressions - and I understand that the unit may "mature" over the next few weeks/months: detailed, fluid and refined sound, stereo imaging is amazing (almost sounds artificial at first), soundstage is huge. The bass could be punchier and a bit more dynamic - maybe this will improve over time. In that regard, my prior CD player, a top of the line ARCAM CD/SACD player, is better. The build is very solid. My only quibble is the small information font in the display - you have to be very close to the unit to be able to see it (at least for my aging eyes).
The SA-10 shines in reproducing music recorded in high-definition and is well worth it. However for regular CDs, yes they sound better, but at a substantial extra cost...
An end-game spinner for me - I hope at least for the next many years..

Replaces a SA 11S3. It is superior.
After five months it sounds even better.

Fantastic SACD player

Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2019

I had purchased McIntosh SACD player. However wasn't happy with sound and some other staff. Returned McIntosh added $2K and got this SA-10. It has superb sound. It can be used as a separate DAC. Recommend.
