I would say the E650 deserves the DP-560. Don't worry about SACDs. This is not really the main point about the DP-560. I also only have very few SACDs as I buy CDs based on how good the interpretation is and not if it is SACD or not. I first intended to buy the DP-430, which is of course also an excellent CD player but then I compared it to the DP-560 and decided to wait 6 months to save up for longer. During that time I only had the MELCO streamer and a Chord Mojo DAC, which I had once bought for when I am on the road. When the DP-560 arrived I thought I might sometimes use the MELCO connected to the DP-560 for streaming music I had purchased through download, but even the high res files played in this way did not give me the same pleasure as listening to the same album on CD. So now the MELCO is just used for TIDAL, which is a complete overkill and not used much.
