Super High Material

Reasonable sound for reasonable cost?
I think most hi-fi manufacturers should take note!

I bought about 5 or 6 titles. Allman Bros. Fillmore East, Steely Dan Aja, Derek & Dominoes Layla, Who Who's Next, and possibly a couple more (I can't remember...). In each case, they were the best versions I have ever heard including the current SACD formats. They are very pricey but, if you want to drop some coin, there are no better versions available. The packaging is also second to none. They are supposedly not re-releasing them so get them while you can.

Where did you get yours?

Another source is Amazon Japan. Always go for FedEx if possible, much cheaper than EMS.

SHM cd's are sounding brighter with less bottom and less 3D,also instruments are sounding little thinner.You can hear that these versions are not as good as most very old nonmaster cd's.First impression is wow but when you listen to them on very highend system you are finding out the opposite.They are louder,so you have to adjust the other older cd¨s accordingly.The voices are not as human as they should be.On lower end systems could be benefiting from these negative features though.
