Anyone getting into the Christmas spirit ?

Well, that time of year is coming upon us and there's a CD from Mannheim Steamroller,Christmas Extraordinaire, that will get you into the spirit very nicely. This American Gramophone HDCD is one of the best produced CD's I have yet heard, and played through my inexpensive Sony DVP-NS500V it sounds wonderful.I bought this cheap on sale at Target.If you have a SACD player, this extraordinary CD will send goosebumps over your body.I wish someone with some technical savvy would tell me why a HDCD sounds so good through a SACD player.Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night...

I am in the Christmas Spirit year round. I find that really good Christmas music transcends the season.

A special favorite is "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" performances by The Platters and also The Modern Jazz Quartet.

Another favorite is a CD entitled "Christmas in the Vineyard".

I agee with you regarding HDCD sounding great on SACD, but have no technical knowledge as to why.

God bless.
