Recs for MUSIC only discs for my 5.1 surround sys

Grateful Dead - American Beauty & Working man's Dead are great sounding mixes

Frank Zappa - Halloween & Zappaphiliac are awesum in 5.1

Neil Young - Harvest is nice as well

Eric Bibb - Sisters & Brothers

For classical music, try arkivmusik.com. They have over 2000 SACDs listed, and many blu rays. I would suggest claudio Abaddo blu rays of Gustav Mahler, but it depends on your tastes as well.

Look at this as well:

Did you think to search the music archive??? or google Best 5.1 Music DTS or SACD? Plenty of info available.

Here are a few to get you started.

Jethro Tull - Aqualung (expensive, yes, but wow!!! This is a completely new album to me.)

- Pink Floyd - DSOTM, Wish You Were Here (ditto, though the makeover is less extreme)

DTS 5.1s
Sheryl Crow - The Globe Sessions
Diana Krall - Love Scenes
Steve Miller Band - Fly Like an Eagle
The Police - Every Breath You Take
Queen - A Night at the Opera
Simple Minds - Once Upon a Time & New Gold Dream
Sting - Brand New Day

Keb' Mo' -SACD- "Just Like You"

Earth Wind and Fire Alive in ’75 is a live, surround sound recording mixed especially for SACD. It is not a hybrid disc, so it will only play on dedicated SACD players and uses Sony’s excellent DSD audio system for mastering.

- Genesis catalog is wonderful, too. The stereo mixes get railed on (for good reason), but the 5.1 are wonderful. Plus lots of great interviews and extras.

- Magenta - Seven

- Rush - Moving Pictures. I don't have the Sectors sets, but Moving Pictures is wonderful.

- Anything engineered by Steven Wilson. He is the gold standard for sound.

- Opeth - Heritage.
