SACD....by the numbers

[SeeMoreDigital]

Perhaps the SACD hasn't been released yet.

The 1979 JVC release is on Discogs, JJ. Not sure about the SACD .

Yes, I linked to the master release. The SACD isn't there.

Don’t forget that we are a subset of the overall SACD buyers. There are many more audiophiles that buy them just for stereo or mono due to their higher fidelity.

Yes, good point specifically to using the polls on this site as a gauge of overall SACD purchasing activity.

A few months back I sold my only stereo SACD (Rush Hemisheres mfsl) for quite a bit more than I paid many moons ago. So there's definitely buyers out there for the stereo sacds as you describe.

I've just checked... I managed to buy my copy of Hemispheres from Amazon UK (on 29 Sep 2013) as a US import, it cost £17.65 including delivery

Shame there wasn't a multi-channel version 'hidden' on the disc...

EDIT: I also have this album on black vinyl, two picture discs (UK and Canada), cassette tape and two CD's (1987 Canada and 1997 UK)...

Looking at what I have ripped on my pc, counting .iso's, I have over 500GB of stereo SACD's.
About 50GB of that was released by FIM and are mostly Japanese artists, although a few are Chinese and US artists I believe.
BTW I just put up another 72 inch tall bookcase for disc storage. Came with 3 removable and two fixed shelves (I think) and I built 3 more to house about, um, maybe 80% of my surround BD's.
A few hundred here, a few hundred there, before you know it they start taking over.

Oh, I have about 2TB of surround SACD .iso's on the pc. (easier than counting discs!)

ImportCDs usually carries all Evosound products as does AmazonUS! LINK WORKED FINE BEFORE....maybe HRaudio.net is doing 'routine' maintenance on their website!

At any rate, here's the album cover and it has never been released on multi~CH SACD prior to Evosound's upcoming release:

Assuming it turns out to actually be multichannel... Evosound has overpromised and underdelivered before (with Bob James' One).

Despair NOT, JJ ...they did come through with the recent Chlara LOVE YA disc in multichannel as well as the two Mr Big Multi~CH SACDs!

I think they learned their lesson [well] with the ONE fiasco!

Ah I see Lee Ritenour is on that lineup, Chaka Khan guests! I've not listened to this one but could be a winner.

Here's pre-order link from importCDs:
https://www.importcds.com/between-the-sheets-30th-anniversary-remastered-sacd/4895241409301Release date: 3/15
And if you zoom in on the sticker, it clearly says "Multichannel 5.1"

Off on the list it goes!

I must have the missed the post for this, so out of curiosity I went looking on Evosound and realised I'd also missed the Fourplay 30th release which it says is a 5.1 Hybrid SACD! So I'll be ordering both when the pre-order comes up.

I tried to order from import CD and it says no shipping options. Would not let me order.
Never mind was a temp glitch.
