In Reply to: Are Japanese SHM SACD's anything? posted by mbnx01 on February 20, 2015 at 14:32:33:
Is a different type of plastic for the makeup of the disc itself, (and perhaps) a different way to stamp it from the master.
It is available on redbook discs too. I notice no difference in sound between SHM redbook and non SHM redbook. I have no SACD discs that SHM vs regular SACD, that are also not re-mastered: so can't compare those.
The Steely Dan AJA SHM-SACD is a pile of muddy, closed-in, crap. I prefer the redbook remaster to the SHM SACD: even though one can tell that the individual instruments sound better and are at a higher resolution.
just my opinion...

Where people had paid to see inside,
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'"
