In Reply to: SACDs are at their best when the acoustic is natural and untainted by processing--Jazz/Classical/Acoustic (nt.) posted by jdaniel@jps.net on January 25, 2005 at 09:17:59:
with the kind of sound you listen to (that's not really music, is it?) you might as well buy b0s3 crap? It would not be the first time some self appointed 'i now what good music is' classical music lover (now that's real music, can't you hear that!!) would tell me that.
Now that the rant is over (just a short one) SO WHAT! (i really do not feel the need to convince other people that pop/rock can improve with high-res right now, or that violins sound even more like screaming cats on sacd than on a normal cd-)-)
If pop/rock listeners are interested in Hirez (which can not be copied 1:1 at the moment) and are willing to buy it, sell it to them! If they are wasting money on sacd's, that's their choice. Just laugh and put on a nice record/cd/sacd/dvd-a/dual-disk/mp3 (maybe one of the 1001 different releases of KOB)
