In Reply to: Poll: What do you use - 2 channel or 5 channel SACD playback? posted by sser2 on May 16, 2007 at 16:48:37:
By and large I like the engineering of the multichannel releases for classical. Usually surround only and spacious. The %22gimicky%22 ones I like too: Bach/Biggs is cool having multiple organ ranks around the room and the Bach Brandenburgs with instrumental groups around the room. Only found the Mahler/SFS recordings sounding artificial and %22vague%22. I must add that the most impressive sonic improvement in resolution and spacial distribution is the Beethoven/Barenboim on DVDA. (Sorry). My system is balanced for MC (same speaker types).
