My experience is that A-B testing is of little value with sources. The differences in quality between two players will be in the nuances, imaging and detail retrieval - things that you can't pick up doing A - B testing. Your pleasure with Impressions #1 will continue as you pull out more and more CD's you haven't played in a while. That's the true test of a new source component IMHO. There is no doubt that you will need to upgrade your amp at some point to take full advantage of the SA-7's capabilities. Don't do it right away, however - get used to the Marantz first.
