the Munch SACD version. I will definitely purchase it.

Since I am presently archiving a large bookcase full of CDs in WAV format on to my PC external hard drive, I am somewhat hesitant about purchasing SACDs unless the redbook layer is an improvement over the original version I already have. From what you said, the redbook layer of the Munch SACD is a remastered version of a recently discovered 3 channel recording.

Although I already have about 10 carefully selected SACDs of Van Cliburn, Julia Fischer, Antal Dorati, etc. that I listen to on my universal DVD/CD player, I am more frequently using my PC as my primary music source. It's not only much easier to catalog and access my recordings, but also, with specialized software and a USB DAC, can provide virtually error-free and better sounding playback than even my modded Marantz CDP.

Unfortunately, I cannot rip the SACD layer to my PC, since there is no DVD/CDR drive or software presently capable of playing/ripping the DRM encoded signal on a PC. As a result I am being very selective in purchasing SACDs.

Again, sincerest thanks for your response.

Barney
