They all have a dedicated two channel high resolution track. Depending upon the source material, and mixing decisions, many now have both 2 channel and multi. There was only one instance that I am aware of where recently a classical label introduced one disc without a two channel track but quickly did an about face when they received many complaints and said it (the 2 channel) was omitted in error. The mandatory inclusion of the 2 channel "Folder" is part of the SACD spec.
