Marantz SA10 sacd player

I have a limited collection of 5-channel SACDs and an old OPPO player which has been repaired by OPPO. I have been to live performances of concerts where some of the orchestra, or one singer, is in the balcony above and behind the ground-level seats in the concert hall. SACD should duplicate this. It would add drama for Mater Gloroisa who sings of Faust's immortal part awakening in Paradise in the Mahler 8th.

Drbarney1 , it’s really hard to copy live , you can put a nice system with a better room.And maybe it can go near the live one.SACd is good but mostly the system is the one that does it.

Immersive audio accomplishes this. It has little to do with a recording’s resolution (although some say a DSD recording helps).

For a comprehensive discussion of Immersive audio, read this by Chris Connaker.
