I bought a new Esoteric K-01XD SACD player in January. Just missed out on the last of the black ones.
The sound was wonderful, but It could not play SACDs that had a multi-channel layer, which are most of my SACDs. Working with the great folks at Overture (Wilmington, DE), I promptly received a brand new Esoteric K-01XD SACD player. Salutations to Overture AV in Wilmington, DE and to Esoteric in Japan, who I suspect have had supply line challenges with this dreadful pandemic.
BTW, the serial number on my player that was part of the bad production run was 130002. Thanks - Gerry
