In Reply to: What? No multichannel? I want my money back! posted by Stephen on July 30, 2002 at 17:40:36:
Stones , and CCR titles could have been remixed for Multichannel on SACD , but absolutely no effort was made to do so .In the 1970s , I purchased the Quadraphonic " Creedence Gold " that I still play , which I believe contains some of the same songs to be issued on stereo only SACDs .
With regards to Dolby Pro Logic II , I have a much more advanced SQ decoder / synthesizer from the 1980s , called the Fosgate Tate II , that I always use when playing my stereo LPs and CDs . It works very nicely on most material , but it generally is not the equivalent to listening to a Quadraphonic or 5.1 product .
I don't own a Dolby Pro Logic II , so I am not sure that it will work properly with a mono recording . My Fosgate Tate II does not , and neither does my Dolby Pro Logic I .
On Multichannel Hi-Rez , I have no interest in purchasing fake multichannel discs made from 1 or 2 channel masters . However , if multitrack recordings exist , then I believe that Multichannel discs should be issued .
To date , the SACD consortium has shown little commitment to Multichannel . I will not be purchasing any of the upcoming Stones , and CCR SACDs .
Sincerely ,
ZS KEKL
