I will look into some reviews before buying any SACD's. But, I am much more interested in the 2 Channel SACD reviews. Will NEVER use them in multi-channel. If reviews are good for 2 Channel, then I may try it out. If they really do sound that much better, then I will start a new collection. Bet the SACD's are also more expensive than regular cd's, no? Thanks for the info!
Cheers,
Phil
Phil...how much did you get done this past weekend?
Me...some, but not finished. I played golf Sat (my other vice)...I knew it would be too hot for the attic when I got back and my daughter planned this Fathers Day outing yesterday. I did some work early on Sunday. Got the attic wires run for the back positioned sub and the side surrounds. That was it for the attic work. The two front Height Atmos speakers are all that remain up there.
For the speakers I bought a 100' reel of 12 G speaker wire so I had to terminate my own ends with banana plugs...I did all the ends that terminate to the amps...this evening I'll do the ends that terminate at the speaker for the side surrounds...the atmos (in ceiling) will be bare wire connected.
I ordered a few SACD discs over the weekend...I was kind of like you thinking 2 channel was all I would be interested in. In my old system I had a few DVD concerts, Santana, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bob Marley...5.1 output...better than I thought they would be.
I got a couple jazz, Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" I have on CD...the reviews on the stereo SACD version were kind of mixed, but everyone seemed to rave about the multi-channel version so I bought that one...I did get a couple Lovinthehd mentioned, Up in Arms - Dire Straights.
I wasn't on Amazon though...It's a start...if I like them I will build from these and check them next time.
