I bought my copy of the Avalon SACD back in 2007[used]for $4.99 at a local[now defunct] record store.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice! 4.99 WOW, think I paid 76 bout a month ago. urgh:howl
You have the illness we all have-and there is no cure! Only mild relief with new releases in High res multi channel
To quote from Can "I Want More" ".....And More" (Tracks 1 & 4, on Flow Motion).....only a 2.0 Hybrid-SACD dammit!! :howl But recorded with the artificial head system so kind of surround!
some of those Can SACDs pan out nicely in PLII Music (can't remember off top of my head but think Flow Motion is one of them.).
This is a great thread! I started out in 2004/2005. I hit up a Stereophile show in midtown Manhattan, I believe it was held at the Hilton. I was checking out the vinyl and CD's they had on sale on the ground floor (they had quite a selection!) and I stumbled upon one merchant that had a slew of SACD's. So I grabbed Keb Mo's Just Like You and a handful of other SACD's (Jazz at the Pawn Shop among others). Single discs were $25, doubles were $50. I didn't have a SACD player, but I figured one day I'll have a rig to play them. I picked up an Oppo 980 a few years later and forgot about the SACD's until a year and a half ago when I purchased a center channel and two floor-standers and it just hit me that I had a 5.0 rig! Then I found AVS Forum had a Surround Sound forum and I started combing it for recommendations and just started buying up SACD's and DVD-A discs. Unfortunately, I didn't think to hit up Tower & HMV years ago when both were still open in Manhattan (as well as Tower Records). I knew of MFSL and DCC Gold CD's because I snatched up Metallica's Ride the Lightning from DCC like 10 years ago from some local CD shop in the West Village. Even though the market appears to be a bit dry, the used market (thanks to Amazon!) has helped me immensely in continuing to purchase MCH material.
