Just before Christmas, I picked up a cheap used Samsung HD-841 to see what all the fuss was about for SACD/DVD-A. I bought Pink Floyd's DSOTM, Fleetwood Mac's Rumours and Dire Straits Brothers in Arms to do the testing.
First I put in Pinks, I was amazed on the 5.1. Then I put in Fleetwood for DVD-A testing,again totally impressed and the best song was Songbird.
Now when I put in Dire Straits, that is where I was totally blown away. I guess being a newer disc means quality recording! All the songs were "crystal clear" and detailed. I like "Why Worry" the most with of the instruments feeling like they are coming from the air and not from any speaker.
So now I am on a fury of buying either SACD or DVD-A discs,which I have to order as I live in a small town. I have Elton John's Good Bye Yellow Brick Road & Journey's Escape on the way.
I would like to order some piano/sax mix but I have no idea who performs these, Do you guys have any recommendations?
