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.
