SACD releases


Is this format going the way of the do-do bird or what? I just picked up a player and realized the releases have all but stopped - other than some Genesis titles. It looks like Nothing good is slated for the future.

Maybe you should do your homework in advance next time.
FWIW, I still have a SACD player, and a lot of SACD titles. It does sound better, and I cannot imagine going back to a redbook player. That being said, the glory days of SACD are in the past. The last couple of years it's been moving more into a 'cottage' type of industry, not unlike vinyl, meaning minimum release compared to mainstream music. Unfortunately, the public has spoken, and once again chosen lower price over quality.

I second Johns comments. Superior format but unsuported by the big recording companies and the general public for obvious reasons. But I listen exclusively to Jazz and Classical and new releases keep coming. And agree it is and is going to continue to be a small cottage industry for obvious reasons.

You are right. I just hope someone continues to release a few titles other than classical and jazz, although I don't mind those. For some reason it seems DVD audio is getting more rock/pop titles. I went with the SACD only player because I had some bad luck with DVD audio on universal players. 1. the menus were horrible to the point I couldn't get discs to play unless I hooked the player up to a television set. Also, I purchased a few discs that sounded horrible.
