Does anyone know of a decent carousel (or even mega-changer) type player that supports SACD & DVD-A (and perhaps HDCD as well)?

We're specing a seperate DVD player for the client, but an optional component is a universal player just for music - hence the universal requirement.

Haven't found one yet amongst the usual suspects, so any leads appreciated!

No help on a recommendation just stay away from the Denon changers; I'm sure you are already aware.

Sony's DVPCX995V 400-Disc DVD/Super Audio CD/CD Mega Changer

AUDIO
AK4385 Audio DAC
Dolby® Digital and dts® Optical/Coaxial Output
Digital Output: 96kHZ/24-bit SPDIF; 96kHZ/24-bit (5.1ch) HDMI
5.1ch Analog Output: Dolby® Digital; dts®; SACD Multi
FL Off

INPUTS/OUTPUTS
Component Video Outputs (1)
S-Video (2)
Composite Video Output (2)
HDMI (1)
Digital Audio Output: Coaxial (1); Optical (1)
5.1ch Analog Audio Output (1)
2ch Analog Audio Output (2)

But once you've selected this player you could also recommend a server such as Escient, Request ...etc. as part of the universal thing.

Sony's doesn't include DVD-A support :(

No, actually I'm not - we've not used a carousel changer in quite some time! What's wrong w/the denon changers? (I was considering using a Denon, but they, too, don't have any SACD/DVDA changers.)

fyi, have been referred the following so far, in case anyone else is looking for the same:
