Hard to be picky, but if I have to mane there are two classical SACD's worth mentioning;
One is Saint-Saens Organ symphony, this one is on Canadian ATMA label, Orchestre Metropolitain du Grand Montreal/Belanger. Definitely not a match for Charles Munch performance on RCA, but the audio is simply spectacular, it is recorded in a large cathedral with huge reverberation, one of the best sounding SACD's particularly if reproduced thru very large full range speakers.
The other SACD is a solo piano recording, music of Franz Liszt performed by Arcadi Volodos on Sony Classical. The piano is notoriously difficult instrument to record well and equally difficult to reproduce faithfully. This is a very fine sounding piano recording with full dynamics and again you are in for a treat if you play this one with a large full range speakers.
