Is SACD a dead format?

Why am I always forced to explain the obvious!

What is a DVD? Its a CD that holds more. DO YOU OWN A COMPUTER?

CDrom or DVDrom?

And Danlib what kind of transport does your universal player have?

You guys are funny, try thinking a little about the world not your little world.

CD's will not need to coexist with DVD's much longer, as DVD transports will be the only available transport. So why stay at 16/44.1 with redbook's slightly flawed allocation of bits? Are you going to tell me now that 24/96 PCM 2 channel is going to be inferior to 16/44.1?

My name has nothing to do with my ability to discern sound and quality of systems. Nor does it reflect any limitation to my desire to have the best sound at my house.
Since my two channel system easily surpasses yours Danlib, you may want to think about why I listen too 2 channel CD's in surround

PS: Don't bring a knife to a gunfight.

If it isn't it should be.
What a total joke SACD is.
Sounds like CD's version of Dolby Noise Reduction.
Just a total joke and i owned 4 players with a range of 350.00 to 6000.00 and my Resolution Audio Opus 21 blows them all away'

Never died...was stillborn! Cinematic_systems, you might also have mentioned that you're a dealer, so your posts should be taken with a HUGE caveat...although you did give me a hearty laugh!

Cinematic, All several of us are suggesting is that newer units have made normal redbook much better and that we are sad to see sacd go, if indeed it goes. I suspect that universal players will be with us for many years even if sacd dwindles.

I don't think, "mine is bigger than yours" talk helps much, and I think you should get real and get accustomed to others not sharing your opinion. For example I have many dvdv on one side and dvdas on the other. Frequently I much prefer the dvdv side. And very frequently I prefer the cd version to the dvda version, probably because of the copy protection.

I cannot imagine any reason to have sound surround, and frankly cannot afford to have the quality in speakers, amps, and preamps in the additional channels even were I impressed with mc.

Guys!

1. I know CD sounds great, my CD's sound awesome love them, bought about 70 CD's in the last three weeks.

2. When I say DVD-A what I mean is audio on a DVD, 2 channel, or multi-channel.

3. Danlib has an excellent system, F30 dollar for dollar one of the best full range speakers on the market. But my example was about considering the potential of surround if my two channel system surpasses his. If you can't imagine, then you must investigate.

4.I'm a dealer

5. Car Stereo's use DVD drives now soon all transports will be DVD compatible.

6. 24/96 established as the current bit/oversample rate.

7. Copy protection issues limiting DVD-A development and market proliferation, sad story of corporate greed.

8. DVD-A does not mean multichannel to me, it means 24/96 audio

9. Sup Pabelson, thank for the additional info

10. I need a girlfriend, cause I have too much time to post here.

Later guys.
