Sony XA5400es -- where to get one?

Eric · « **Reply #20 on:** 3 Aug 2010, 06:08 pm »

I wonder why Sony discontinued such a popular and well reviewed unit?

modwright · « **Reply #21 on:** 5 Aug 2010, 06:24 am »

Why does Sony do a lot of things?

Why did they stop producing SACD's?

Big corporations have to look at bottom lines. Audiophiles represent a small portion of the consumer market unfortunately.

Heard that David Schultz @ Audio Video Synergy has 4 Sony XA5400's in stock last Friday.

Might check there...his number is 908-894-5222!

Thanks,

Dan

Dan,
Thanks for posting this information. Dave is my brother, and when I saw that the 5400s were in demand I bugged him (downright pestered him!) to get some units in.
Just so people know, his AC handle is "Audio Video Synergy" (creative, huh?). He's not nearly as active here as I am, so if anyone wants my help in contacting him feel free to PM me and I'll make sure he gets the word.

Thanks again, Dan.

Sound Seller is a Sony authorized dealer and is ordering more 5400's. He received 1 unit as a test order from Sony that was bought by one of our ModWright customers.

We have bought many Sony's from Ron over the years dating back to the 999ES and 9100ES's. Other than being a square dealer and easy to deal with, we have no affiliation with Ron or Sound Seller....................just trying to find units for our customers!

I should have mentioned that Audio Video Synergy is now located in Clinton, NJ, if anyone is local and wants to pick up a 5400...

Ron at Sound Seller has Sony 5400 units in stock:

1-800-826-0520

Mike at Digital Universe also has Sony's:

1-800-266-4714 X-233

We have bought from both of these sellers and the units were factory sealed. No affiliation other than getting new units with no BS.

Thanks to JG2's referral, I bought my XA5400ES from Ron at the Sound Seller. He was very easy to deal with and shipped my unit without delay directly to ModWright to be modified. Highly recommended.

JG2 · « **Reply #28 on:** 2 Sep 2010, 02:15 am »

Very cool!

Yes, Ron is easy to deal with, is a Sony authorized dealer, double boxes and ships right away.

I hope to find some time soon to mod my personal 5400!

Another dealer I was in communications with regarding a Sony XA5400ES was United Online Shopping. Dante was very responsive to emails. In fact, literally minutes after I had made my purchase, he contacted me to advise that he had just received a unit from Sony. A search for SCD-XA5400ES on his website currently indicates "limited quantity available": http://unitedonlineshopping.com/

In case anyone is looking http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?dgtlplay&1293622729&/Sony-scd-xa5400es-

I don't know who is doing the selling so I have no affiliation.

JG2 · « **Reply #35 on:** 6 Nov 2010, 04:39 am »

I have bought a new Sony XA5400 from this seller. It was 'A' stock, new unit and double boxed.

I noticed that he now has one on an E-Bay auction:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170561958777&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123

No affiliation with the seller other than being a satisfied customer and hoping someone gets a new Sony XA5400ES for less than the going price of $1200 +/-

Was visiting the J&R store this weekend and, low and behold, they had one (or two) in stock for $1100. Delivered today, manufacturing date of December, 2010! Surprised to see that since the discontinued rumor has been for a while. Can't wait to hook it up.
