Stump 3,765 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 20 Years since the release of the Sony's SCD-1 Super Audio CD player. I have stuck with CD and Vinyl and don't plan on changing soon. How many members are spinning DVD-A and SACD....... 5 Link to post Share on other sites
075Congo 350 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I use CD and SACD formats exclusively using an Esoteric K-05Xs SACD player. Recently bought a range of PS Audio SACDs available on their website and would recommend them plus the SACD format generally. CD playback on the K-05Xs is excellent as well so I'm a happy boy.

stand 310 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Hi Willmax I’m pretty sure it’s an old milk crate. I’ve got a naughty little Burmese Cat who’s name is Hunter that loves to bite, scratch and touch all my Audio equipment, to save him burning his little paws I’ve put this crate around the amplifier. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Stump 3,765 Posted January 25 Author Share Posted January 25 (edited) How is this for something different! SACD This lavish set documents a once-in-a lifetime concert dedicated to Jerusalem, with Jewish, Arab and Christian musicians boldly threading together musical traditions under the direction of Jordi Savall, the world's leading early music performer. Comprising two hybrid Super Audio CDs in a 400 page full-sized glossy hardback book. Edited January 25 by Stump 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mickstuh 174 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Wow, Jerusalem looks something special. Another SACD fan here. I remember when they first came out. A colleague had an SACD of Another Side of Bob Dylan. I asked for a lend, so I could compare with my CD. I managed to blind test myself. I played one disc, thought, yeah, that sounds good. I put the other disc in and hit play. Then I heard an intake of breath before track 1. In 20 years of owning that album I had never heard that. 'That's the SACD' I surmised. Never looked back. If only all audio A/B comparisons were that conclusive! 4 Link to post Share on other sites

HomerJ 34 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I was going to post that I play SACDs and DVDAs very often but this is a stereo thread and I never listen to the stereo mixes. Multichannel only. (My last listening session was all three Donald Fagen 5.1 DVDAs followed by Steely Dan’s DVDAs (all superb). 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Including BDAs in a multi channel music would be worthy of its own thread.I always said you Listen to Stereo but Experience multi channel music .I had Vaf I66mk2 all round for the ultimate multi channel experience. I never found many people doing dedicated rooms apart from home theater.When I play DVD-A in Stereo I enjoy the mix which can sound different to the CD or LP mix. ?

I visited a fellow QuadraphonicQuad website member here in Melbourne a while back. He has his double garage converted into a music room. 3 walls filled with just about every multichannel release. Thousands of seventies quad LPs and Tapes plus just about every multichannel SACD, DVD-A and Blu-ray ever released. Surround encoded CDs too. You name it, he has it. Amazing collection! He also has a huge collection of vintage multichannel equipment I’ve only got about 1600 MCH releases in my collection plus a further 600 of my own upmixes, some of which sound really fantastic. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
