I have listened to Classical Music For about 25 years. A pretty good CD collection. Favorites include Sibelius, Wagner, Mozart, Mahler, Bruckner, Poulenc, Tchaikovsky, Ravel, Debussy. Also enjoy a lot of opera, especially Wagner. I do prefer Multichannel to Stereo SA-CD listening. I do want to make it clear however, that this is just my personal preference. I understand many other SA-CD enthusiasts prefer Stereo. To me, everyone is entitled to their own preferences. That's just as it should be. However, there has been plenty of argument and debate over which is "superior". In reality, neither of them is. They are both just different ways of experiencing the high quality playback that SA-CD offers. Something, however, that does need to be addressed is the fact that many Hi-Fi dealers and stores only cater to Stereo listeners. Also, many manufacturers of Hi-Fi gear will only produce Stereo SA-CD players. I have no objections to Stereo SA-CD players. The problem is that there are not more multichannel players. I am not saying that manufacturers should not make Stereo players. Of course they should. That is only fair. I do think it only fair and right that more manufacturers produce more Multichannel players. The choice for both kinds of listeners should be fair. Lets have plenty of players to please both stereo and multichannel enthusiasts. Also, just to add a point, there needs to be more multichannel players beyond the Universal Machines that play DVDs, DVD-Audio and such. Just straight Multichannel players. I think everyone can agree on this point. |

Player: Oppo BDP-93 Denon AVR-990 Receiver Fronts: Paradigm Monitor 11 V.6 Center: Paradigm 5se MK3 Surrounds: Paradigm Titan v2.0 Headphones: Sennheiser HD650 DAC: M-DAC from Audiolab I recently made an all important adjustment to my system. I had placed my surrounds above me and behind me, close to the ceiling. Basically, the speakers were over my head, shooting past me. I now have them placed properly, aiming at me from the sides. Big improvement, more closely following the ITU Standard. I do recommend that those who enjoy a surround sound system use an SPL Meter, along with a tune up disc, such as "Stay In Tune With Pentatone" to balance their speaker set up. I did this and it improved the sound greatly. |

I have read on the Minnesota Orchestra site that Vanska will continue to record the Sibelius cycle in 2015. Can we expect these recordings on SA-CD? I sure hope so. My wallet will be waiting for these titles with baited breath!! ... more | |

Hoping there are other Linda fans here? If there are going to be more Linda Ronadtadt releases on SACD, which albums would you like to see? I'd like to see the remaining Nelson Riddle albums along with her core 70's albums like Simple Dreams, Heart Like A Wheel, Prisoner in Disguise and Get Closer as well as Cry Like A Rainstorm. ... more | |
