Yep, Denon couldn't sell DVD-5910's for $3800 anymore because they didn't play Blu-rays, so they sold them all to to Crutchfield on the cheap, so they could blow them all out for $999. I figure I'll always have a PS3 for Blu-ray, but I have a large CD/DVD/SACD/DVD-Audio collection, and I don't think any player will be as good as this sans blu-ray for a grand.

Here's a review-

It's a beast of a player with the ultimate in build quality, power supply, transport, and D/A conversion.

It will be very interesting to A/B the same SACD with the Denon and my PS3. Actually any media that plays in both will be interesting to compare. I just ordered mine Monday morning. I wonder how much of a bath Denon took on these? I would guess they sold them to Crutchfield for no more then $750 a piece.

Cool deal. Thanks for posting. Be sure and come back to post your comparison.

Don't know if Id' spring for this, as I'd be more inclined to nab an Oppo 983 and a second PS3, but I am tempted.

I haven't had much time to listen. I've been working on finishing the basement and it's taking a while. I'm a little disappointed that it doesn't support DSD, as it is only HDMI 1.1. Has anyone a/b'd DSD vs. PCM on a new recv'r that can handle DSD?
