Are you going to buy the Rolling Stones SACDs?

Ohlala,

I just bought six of the new Stones cds through Borders on the Internet. Actually its Amazon.com but the prices were 13.99 for most of them, 12.98 for "Let it Bleed" and free shipping and no tax if you spend 25.00 or more. Delivery they said will be in 1 to 2 weeks.

Thanks, my man

I purchased both "Hot Rocks","Beggar's Banquet","Let It Bleed","Satanic Majesties", and "Metamorphosis".
I do not have SACD, but got the 2-CD sets for 24.99 and the singles for 13.99, and was able to use a 15% off total purchase coupon from Borders at Best Buy. Many stores did not get all 22 copies.
The sound quality is fantastic. I no longer need to turn my volume to the 1:00 position to hear "Gimme Shelter". There is actually some bass on these CDs. Given that the material is from the mid-sixties, it's pretty exciting. If the redbook is this good, the SACD must rule. (I've got a Cary 306, I'd like to compare it to a mid-level SACD.)
The verdict is: For the price, you must have "the essentials (Hot Rocks I)" at the very least. If you're a certified fan, all are reccomended.

I picked up Metamorphsis at Borders this afternoon. Popped in my car CD changer, went straight to Going Down. Goosebumps and memories, what a song. The CD itself: they cleared up lots of the grunge( though they keep some in, thank god). Excellent sound concerning what was recorded.
But with the Stones it was never about the quality of the sound it was their attitude ( however faux it was) they recorded. Mick was really jaded and cynical on Going Down, loved it. Actually there were 4 songs that i thought should have made their albums, the rest.... second rate stuff... but better then most bands top drawer....

I just bought (what I think) is a current reissue but nowhere on the packaging does it say "DSD", "SACD", etc.
It's in one of those cardboard type containers (not plastic jewel box). Should I open it or is this some kind of record company scam?
Anyone seen reissues marked "SACD"?
