>>It seems to me the primary audience for SACDs are the generations which grew up on vinyl, at least initially.<<
Disagree, in fact, most vinylphiles I know regarded DSD/SACD as just another attempt at attaining another consumer format, one that also required you to re-purchase yet another musical inventory, one with an obvious DRM agenda, put about by a manufacturer who had already "fooled" 'philes via "perfect sound forever".
>>And I'm sorry to say, these seem to be mostly old geezer audiophiles who will go the way of the Do Do birds in a few years.<<
Well, vinyl remains a major audiophile passion, while SACD ...
At the very least, vinylphiles can hang their hats on not having universally adopted yet another failed format which promised audio nirvana.

How much of the vinyl "resurgence" is due to the generations who grew up in the Age of "Perfect Sound Forever" ?
... perhaps the initial digital generation finally figure out what we "do-do birds" came to pass decades ago ... that vinyl done right was head over heals the more natural musical format ... although far from "perfect".
