Notice how many SACD collections for sale?

Hififile, I have Take Five on 45 rpm LP and have done a RealityCheck copy. Both are better than my SACD.

For me SACD may survive as a format in that it sounds more like vinyl, it has that relaxed yet lively invigorating quality of real musicians making real music and that's a nice thing. Happy listening!

I think realitycheck needs a realitycheck.

Tbg, did you buy the RC machine or do you get it done for extra $$. I do understand that the RC process does take some extra effort.

I like SACD, and will not be selling any soon. I enjoy multi-channel the most, and the hi-rez aspect is a bonus. I think you need to commit to a full high quality multi-channel system before you experience what SACD and DVD-A have to offer. Don't scrimp on the center and surround equipment. I like my redbook CDs, and have a long list that I wish were in SACD or DVD-A. SACD stereo is a dud!
