I am one of those classical bozo's and I am really enjoying a lot of Rock SACD's that are being released. As long as the mastering is good, its usually a safe bet.
Now I know what SACD is good for.
Rock and roll is my first love, but over the years as Ive built up my redbook rig, Ive found myself gravitating toward Jazz , Blues, even Big Band, simply because its easier to find more audiophile quality recordings. Reading posts over the years , kind of got the impression SACD is for the classical fan, and Im sure its very rewarding for them, but much to my delight, Rock and Roll is back thanks to SACD. Purchased the Stevie Ray Vaughan stereo SACD not expecting it to be much improved over redbook, but wow , when you turn it up, Stevie is smack in the center of the room. Then the Jeff Beck multichannel recorded in 1975, real real nice. Long live Rock !
