Iâ€™ve been so busy listening to the stereo SACD layers that I havenâ€™t spent any quality time with the CD layers on the new discs. I did compare the stereo SACD layer to the CD layer on â€œTangled Up in Blue,â€ which is track one on â€œBlood on the Tracks.â€ I concluded that the SACD layer sounded more relaxed and detailed, with less distortion on Dylanâ€™s voice.
As to your question re: whether the SACDsâ€™ improvements are due to better remastering or a higher sampling rate, my guess is that itâ€™s a combination of both. The bottom line for SACD player owners, though, is better sound.
