I like the Jacintha and Chet Atkins XRCDs.

Doug McLeod- "Hard to Find" is a fantastic blues XRCD
Ernie Watts- great for Jazz sax
Jacintha- also fantastic for lounge vocals
Bill Evans reissues are first rate as well.

I've not tried any of the classical re-releases yet but plan to one day. I've been buying more SACD than XRCD lately.

For jazz you really should look at the Fantasy Records line of K2 recordings. Seems to be the same technology, amazing sound quality, and regular cd prices. Do a search on K2's, there's a thread explaining what very little difference there may be. For a list of recordings go to www.fantasyrecords.com

Agree with Jond. Recently purchased a number of K2's and they are outstanding. From a sound quality standpoint, I'd put the K2 of Bill Evans "Sunday at the Village Vanguard" right up there with the XRCD I own of "Waltz for Debby" at about 40% of the price of the XRCD. Check out those K2's!
