New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Personally I am NOT impressed with the sonics of the MTT's Mahler SACDs and have spoken out against them

in the past. They are not a good example of utilizing the capabilities of the SACD format.

I find the best Telarc, Exton, PentaTone and Channel Classics DSD recorded SACDs get me to about 95% of what I hear live in a real hall compared to CD that gets me about 5%.

Here is one to help you hear what SACD is indeed capable of:

Michael Gandolfi: The Garden of Cosmic Speculation
Atlanta Symphony Orchestra
Robert Spano (conductor)
Telarc SACD-60696

My system can not only duplicate the correct tonal characteristics and feeling of music in a real acoustic space but also the shape and size of an orchestral shell if the recording and format is up to the challenge! The MTT SACDs are not, SACD has the capability for very realistic sound, it is up to the engineers to deliver it to us, most still do not!


Give me high resolution or remain silent,
Teresa
