I agree that they're generally wonderful. I never get tired of recommending Sinaisky's Rimsky-Korsakov album, or his multi-composer album whose CD incarnation was once available as a BBC Music Magazine freebie:
(For some reason, I can't find the 24/96 download of the Glazunov album right now - it has/had a different cover)
Anyway, the Stogards Sibelius set is available as a 24/96 download from The Classical Shop, but in 2-channel only. As I suggested in my earlier post, I'll probably break down and get the download at some point. Bad assumption on my part that it was available in SACD format.
BTW, in connection with your comments, I do try to minimize my purchases of SACD's these days, although of course I do have a lot of them from years past, and, since my pre-pro doesn't "do" DSD, SACD's are my only means of getting the "pure" (LOL!) DSD experience (by means of the internal DAC in one of my older players and its analog connections).
And, yes, I've noticed the changes in the Chandos (Classical Shop) website which in many ways make it more difficult to get to the information I want - I guess that's progress! ;-)
