Playing SACD on a Non-SACD Player


Is there any benefit at all to playing a SACD on a normal red book player? Is there added information on SACD that will benefit the overall sound?
Thanks,

It may vary, of course, from hybrid to hybrid, but I have not found that the redbook layer of a hybrid disc inferior to a standard redbook (non-hybrid) version.Have others truely found the redbook layer of some hybrids inferior to comparable redbook recordings on non-hybrid discs?
