SACD Software Question


Hello Everyone,.
Do all SACD's have both an SACD layer as well as a red book layer?
Thanks for your help.

Dennis,
No.
Some are SACD only and will only play in a SACD player.
Some are "hybrid" and have the SACD part as well as the redbook part.
If new, they are usually marked as to what they are.
Good Luck!
John
I would add that there is also another layer on SACD's. That is a two channel only layer. So, with a hybrid SACD there would be three total layers; multi channel SACD (3 to 5 ch), 2 channel SACD, and redbook CD.
