I have about a dozen Challenge SACD's and they all sound marvelous, not one dud
for some reasons they sound more vivid than most in my 300 + SACDs collection
Their volume level seems a little higher (+_ 3 db). What is your opinion.
Can you recommend some Challenge SACD's

Got the Tribute to Hoagy Carmichael. Not bad at all.

The Britten Violin Concerto (CC72627) is stunning, both the musicianship and sound quality. Especially in multi-channel.

I'm more familiar with their jazz albums on A-Records and Challenge Jazz than the Challenge Classics titles. But they are very good in Stereo and Multichannel SACD sound. Thumbs up !

The Stereo DSD Download is excellent. I'll have to check out the Multichannel DSD Download.
