Which standard format? LP? Meridian has phono stage options.SA-CD? You can certainly take a stereo or multi-channel input into an appropriately equipped Meridian processor or receiver and make it look just like any other source.
If you mean disc players, that's another story, and that is their decision. Were they ever to make an SA-CD player, it would almost certainly grab the data off the disc and convert to PCM so that it could be handled by their DSPs...
Follow Ups:
Nevertheless, tunenut's point is valid - if you fault Sony for not making DVD-A capable players, you must also fault Arcam, Meridian, Rotel et al, for not making SACD-capable players. Both formats are considered to be industry standards.
Where have I faulted Sony for not making a DVD-A player in this discussion? I haven't.If you're trying to make a point, you might want to do so with someone else.
