Check out the CD layers of the remastered Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan hybrid SACDs, in particular, Let It Bleed by the Stones. The CD layers benefit from the DSD remastering of the SACD layer and really sound good. ralphpnj wrote: > For anything recorded since the beginning of the stereo era (about the > mid 1950s) it's not the age of the recording but rather the quality of > the recording that matters.

Some other good ones: Getz/Gilberto SACD (2011 Analogue Productions remaster), Getz & Byrd Jazz Samba (1994 DCC remaster). Of course they would sound better with a Shunyata Research ZTRON Anaconda power cable, but unfortunately I'm stuck with the stock power cord for my Bryston amp. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff52's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=103 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97950 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
