Topic: SACD

[shane]

I just bought and listened to Dark Side Of The Moon on SACD.  Damn it sounds good.  And it was only two channel.  The louder it got the better it sounded.  I can't imagine what it must sound like in the full 5.1 surround.  Can't wait to do it again a little louder without the wife at home.  This also really has me jonesin' for new speakers, but i must resist.

Probably sounds better in 2.0 than 5.1, IMHO
two ears, two speakers is my motto, all else is hype  <ducking, very fast>

I'm liking SACD, but can't say it's better than hi-res DVD-A, especially through a good DAC.

+T for DSOM in SACD !

I am a big fan of SACD personally. The DSOM was mixed very well, almost to an exagerated point but I like it.

Yeah I'm going to have to order some DVD audio titles.  I was a t Borders and they didn't have much of a selection.  But I would love to hear some stuff.  Its funny, listening to DSOTM I heard things I've never heard before and I've been listening to those songs for years.  Now I definetely won't hesitate to replace all my Dylan and Dead cds with the SACD re-releases.  And thanks again to you guys for not talking me into buying  a surround setup.  I'm loving 2 channels with the Jolida.

The couple of SACD's I have heard of Dylan's back catalog are quite nice.

Herbie Hancocks "headhunters" is on SACD, and that is pretty impressive, imo.
plus, its a must have release for anyones collection.

Great album.  This is what pisses me off about things like SACD and collectors edition dvds.  I already have the Headhunters album.  Now the inner geek in me is going to make me go and buy another copy.  Much like Clerks on dvd.  I bought it on dvd years ago for like $40 and now there's Clerks X.  Gotta buy that one too.  Effin' technology.

I've been listening to SACDs for a while now and to my ears you can’t beat it. I would suggest you pick up Jormas’ Blue Country Heart. Acoustic sounds seem to have to best collection from what I can tell. 461 Ocean Boulevard and Slowhand are good ones also.

"Headhunters" is a MUST have, if you don't have it you should get it. Either redbook or SACD.
