Finally my Jethro Tull arrived today in Germany. I ordered it 27 Oct 2011 from ImportCDs. Even after paying VAT it was very cheap and worth the waiting.
Now XMas can come...

Nice addition that JT set. When was yours send, as I am still waiting for mine that was shipped on 2-12-2011. Thanks.

Queen News Of The World best sounding SHM-SACD so far? What beats this?

And Exile On Main Street sounds like a CD. I'll have to play it some more. Maybe it's just my ears.

Mine was send 12/1. It was at customs. This always takes at least an extra week if shipping papers are alright - like in this case.

Hope this helps

Blair, what the Rebecca Pidgeon surround like, is it very discrete or a very safe surround recording?
I haven't heard of this one and listened to some samples and sounded pretty good.

Hey Peter, I bought the SACD after I read about it in this thread and learned that it was available on amazon.ca for 30 bucks (I'm even in Canada :-)). Didn't even know the album beforehand, only took a quick listen before buying and quite liked it.

The SACD is playing as I'm typing this and mix-wise, it's nothing impressive. The center is actually silent, and the rears only have some ambience. But the music is gorgeous! I think this SACD will unfold its full potential and truly shine on a high-end surround system. It already sounds wonderful on my 450-dollar box.

Quote from the inlay:
"We give you the purest most natural recordings made today captured with a single point microphone, using the world's finest custom made electronics.
No overdubs · No compressors in the signal path · No multitracking · No large mixing consoles."

So yeah, I'd say for 30 bucks, shoot it while you can. After the last couple copies on amazon.ca go, it'll be back up to 50-100 dollars used.

Genesis SACD bonus 2 disc set from the 1970-1976 box set (new and unplayed)

I have Selling England by the Pound and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, on Japanese sacd/dvd which I prefer but they dont have the bonus discs even in the box set.

R.E.M. "The Best Of R.E.M. in Time" DVD-Audio (new & sealed)

Terminator 2 Soundtrack SACD (new & sealed)

Depeche Mode "Some Great Reward" SACD/DVD (new & sealed)

Pink Floyd "Dark Side Of the Moon" Blu-Ray (new)


Pink Floyd is my first Blu-Ray purchase. I got the Blu-Ray disc by itself. I have the complete Depeche Mode set already, however when I can find sealed copies of ones I have that arent sealed I like to get them. That way I dont have to worry about having sealed copies to keep a spares. No need to decide whether to open that way!

Rolling Stones "Symapthy For The Devil" maxi-single sacd (new and sealed) The second cheapest price I have ever paid for sacd. $8.01 USD that included sales tax and shipping. O'Jays "Ship Ahoy" sacd with slipcase still is the cheapest I got it earlier in the year for $8.00 USD in a used record shop.

[cupboy]

That Stones single is on bn.com for $7.59. Is it still a SACD? There's no way of determining that. I've never seen a CD version of it though. Abkco did downgrade the others to CD, so I wouldn't put it past them.

[Green]

Its in a standard sacd case. it has the sacd logo on the back. There is also a paragraph on the back that says its a 2 layer disc cd and sacd and that it has 5.1 surround tracks. The seller I got it from is import cds. Being they are in California as am I, I got hit with sales tax. It was $7.43 without tax and includes shipping. It also has the 3-D effect front inlay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/130619864390...84.m1439.l2649
The same seller has it listed again for 7.50 you arent in California so no sales tax for you. here is the link for sale http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sympathy-Dev...item23180673ee

[cupboy]

I already have it. I bought two at Best Buy when they first came out. The 2nd copy is still sealed. I was just wondering if they're still SACD. Since they are, it must be old stock.

Were they in a regular cd case or the super jewel box?
