Yeah there's a real shortage of good SACD material and most of the stuff out there just isn't my thing. I have a few remasters and one modern SACD recording. If I heard any difference between the CD and SACD layers I'd probably put it down to the mastering processes rather than the format. I only bought them because I can. The unfortunate thing about SACD and DVDA is that they hit the market right about when the whole plastic-disc format began its decline, and having two formats competing against each other doesn't help with adoption (as we also saw with HD-DVD vs BluRay).
