SACD / DVD-A Recs?
« on: October 07, 2004, 03:04:53 PM »
Finally jumping into "real" hifi with my new universal disc player.  Any titles on SACD or DVD-A that I need to have?  Obviously Dark Side of the Moon (I hear it's phenomenal in hi-res), but are there any others that are particularly well-suited to these new formats?

Mingus Ah Um is badass on CD; I can't imagine how good it must sound on SACD!

Santana's "Abraxas" is a nice choice. The remaster is beautiful.
