Wow old thread brought back to life. Well yeah this is still all over the map. I have a few discs SACD and DVD-A that definitely sound better than most regular cd's and some of those regular discs can sound fairly nasty after they've been " re-mastered ", or remixed, or re-released or just plain messed up. However there are plenty of discs that sound great too....the ole standard sierra 1's make them sound real sweet or real sour depending on the source.
And looking back in the thread, Curtis was right wondering why more discs weren't released as blu ray music discs. Now........finally starting to get more and more sweet sounding shows on blu ray and some of those sound just great and some are cheaper than SACDs......just not enough......need....more....please.
