Anyone listening to the multichannel SACD’s ?


To try something different I recently purchased a few multichannel SACD’s. Initially the presentation was so different to the two channel that I have listened to for decades, I wasn’t sure if I liked it. So while watching a couple football games I rotated through the disks. Finally ,I turned off the TV and did some serious listening. Some like the “Best of Jacintha “are subtle with an ambience presentation that places you in the crowd. Others such as Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here” and Dire Straits “ Brothers In Arms” really move the instruments around. One of my buddies compared it to wearing headphones which I can agree with somewhat but to me the the more aggressive 5.1 mixes put you on the stage with the bands. You have the percussion behind you and the singer in front of you. My favorite song is the Doors “Riders On The Storm” which is terrific as the storm is all around you. 
I think some listeners will really enjoy these SACD’s but others not so much. What are your thoughts? Please only comment if you have listened to these multichannel disks. Lately ,I have seen too many negative comments from posters who never listened to a speaker, tweak etc.

Interesting post, you have certainly made me want to try multi-channel SACD. What are your 2 favorites so far?
Thanks mgattmch. Both the Diana Krall ones are good but the Dire Straits and Pink Floyd are my favorites. They are supposedly releasing “Dark Side of the Moon “ shortly which should be really interesting.
I'm not sure if AKUS live is multi-channel but that might be a good one. It sounds very, very good in 2 channel SACD. 
Yes I do listen to 5.1 sacd mix over HDMI in my ht rig.
OPPO into nuforce power amps.

Some I prefer to 2 channel, some not. Pretty even mix.

However my favorite that I own atm over 5.1 is Live In Berlin by Depeche Mode.
Ok, it is a BluRay Audio disc but the principle of the 5.1 mix is the same.

True sacd favorite in 5.1 would be Sacred Love by Sting.
