High quality CDs

And once more (because my brain is working slow this afternoon) referring to what @stuartk typed: yes: definitely do a search on Music Direct’s site. Just type in SACD for your search engine and start scrolling through the pages. I have done that and seen quite a few classical releases on SACD hybrid. Just make SURE that if you order, what you order is DEFINITELY a hybrid (most of them are) and NOT a single layer SACD.

As of late I have been trying to develop a taste for both classical and jazz, and as an example of the former, I recently bought a couple of remastered by "Living Stereo" and "Opus" that were both hybrids. (Before "Living Stereo" got into hybrid SACDs they were also doing the 20 bit rd book classical remasters, ’Witches Brew’ was one, so you might want to do a search on ebay using that as a search engine also.)

I am not really a fan of classical but I am finding the crop of MFSL hybrids to sound fantastic; unfortunately, I did a search on ebay for MFSL classical SACD and came up empty handed.  However, MFSL does have some classical red book issues out there, have you tried any of them?

@rman9    what   @stuartk   said related to the MFSL hybrid SACDs.

I actually started listening to them (the red book layer) before I bought my SACD player, and some of them just blew me away due to the sonic quality (not just because I like the music as I have hybrids by other companies that I should like because of the music but they don't sound good).  I assume it is the mastering that they did with those hybrids.

But, as I typed previously, I am not sure that MFSL remastered any classical releases on SACD/red book hybrid.

BUT, I did a search on ebay using "MFSL classical CDs"  and there were quite a few that came up from the earlier days of MFSL.  I would only say that I own a lot of the earlier MFSL red book remasters, and not all of them are spectacular.

Lately, I have also been experimenting with the Japanese SHM remastered red book CDs and some of them (not all of them) sound pretty decent.  You might do a search on ebay using "classical SHM CDs."

Good luck on your quest for The Sound!

I don’t have a $hit load of Chesky discs (as opposed to MFSL & DCC of which I do own a $hit-load of), but I can think of a couple that I own that sound quite nice:

Rebecca Pigeon/The Raven and I have a Sarah K CD (that I cannot think of the title of at the moment) that sounds excellent.
