Which SACD of Jazz at the Pawnshop sounds better?

Hi all,
I'm a newbie who just purchased his first SACD player, the Marantz SA-11. I see that there are two SACD versions of Jazz at the Pawnshop: the double disk version from First Impression Music and a single disk version from Proprius. Which is better in terms of sound quality? The single disk version has most of the songs I like. But if the double disk version has better sound quality, then that's what I'll get. Thanks.

What was my question again? Oh yea. Will someone answer my question?!!! I'm going to AA. May be I'll get some answers there. I gotta go listen to my Debby Boone album and go to my happy place.

I recognize that that taste in Audio chat sites is highly subjective, but those folks at AA are pretty lame. In place of consulting them I'd suggest a cold water enema.

Colonoscopy? Cold Water Enema? Where can I find these SACD's?

Since you ASSked: Both are readily available where the sun never shines.
Hard core jazz addicts got nothing on suffering over these two selections!
Dat shit'd make John Zorn on a Bose Wave with the volume at 3 O'clock seem
like sex in the afternoon with Angelina Jolie!

Onhwy61, "good jazz has a real edge......". As I type I'm listening to an Ahmad Jamal album and I'm just comfortable as all get out! What does that mean for me and jazz? But I get your point. My next album will be Joe Henderson's Lush Life - I'm sure there are a couple of "jazz" cuts on it somewhere. :-)

Dracule, FWIW, I have the LP and one of the Proprius CD's (not SACD). I much prefer the LP. Maybe the SACD is better than the CD........
