James,
Does the SP3 address the problem the SP2 has with going into detect mode (essentially muting) between CD tracks, depending on how the CD was mastered? (In my case the SP2 is an upgrade of the SP1.7)
The relay click and cutting off the start of songs is annoying.
I've resorted to running the SP2 in bypass 5.1 and using the analog input from my Denon A1UDCI to work around that.

Is this not a function of the player rather than the SP2?
With a 'CD only' player, since the output is exclusively PCM, the player output remains PCM digital zero between songs. With a multifunction player (i.e DVD's, CD's) this is not the case and results in the SP2 decoders beginning a bitstream detection and mode switching routine for either PCM, DTS, AC3. That's the relay click you hear.
I certainly don't ever get that function with a dedicated CD only player.
What type of settings are included on the SP3 to alleviate this?
