Do you know that most modern Surround systems support SACD.
Its a pity albums are not released regularly in this format, because it really improves the musical experience.

My collection includes:
-Dark Side Of The Moon
-Tommy
-War Of The Worlds
-Brothers In Arms
-Avalon
-Some Great Reward
-Back In Black
-The Allman Brothers Band at Fillmore East
-Sea Change
-Tubular Bells

Wouldn't it be great if there were more available?
Albums crying out to be SACD'd include
-The Wall
-The Joshua Tree
-Zooropa
-Purple Rain
-Thriller
-Alchemy live
-Scary Monsters And Super Creeps
-Deep Purple In Rock
although there is not much chance of this happening at this stage.

Shame there aren't more, I love the few SACD and DVD-A albums that I have.

I own the following SACD's

Some Great Reward - Depeche Mode
Black Celebration - Depeche Mode
- I bought this for about £15, but someone recently sold a copy for £62.88 on ebay
Music for the Masses - Depeche Mode
Violator - Depeche Mode
Songs of Faith and Devotion - Depeche Mode
Secret Wish - Propaganda
Daft - Art of Noise

You may have got the impression that I like Depeche Mode. I also like lots of other music, but there's just not many artists releasing material in this format.

A lot of those Depeche Mode SACDs are heavily priced on Amazon. I see Bob Dylan has about 5 reasonably priced SACDs available. I might add "Blonde on Blonde" and "Street Legal" to my collection.
