Interesting I have had just the opposite experience, I have found that the redbook layer on the Hybrid disc is superior to the redbook only disc. And I always buy the Hybrid disc over the redbook only version when it is available.
Am I the only one purchasing hybrid disc's.......
That doesn't listen to them in SACD? I've noticed in some of these that the 2 channel playback doesn't even come close to normal 'quality' 2 channel playback. The last recording I bought was given high marks for 'audio quality' and I thought it was closed in and dullish (the performance wasn't so hot either!).
Is there something in the production of these disc's like for instance the mike set up or the engineers choices in the mix which causes them to focus on the multi-channel effects at the expense of the main channels? I don't think I hear this as often (if ever) on the non multi-channel SACD disc's.
Comments?
