I was going to purchase a 598 and upgrade my 568. Given that the upgrade does not support SACD (even via a separate CD player with an analog in) I won't be purchasing the upgrade.

In fact, if SACD/DVD-A really take off (still doubtful), I might sell my Meridian gear (568, 6000, 5000, 5000c) and go with something more flexible. The only other option is to bite the bullet and sell the 568 and buy a 800.

The question is - can I stay married (with all vital appendages intact) under either option?
