Diana Krall. The mix puts alot of stuff in the rear channels, but if your rears are actually on the side, bipole or dipole, with the null facing the listening spot, it is very nice. I'll bet that was the setup when it was mixed. I had my rear surrounds in the rear and it was distracting. Once I moved them, it was pleasurable.
Best multichannel SACDs?
I know there are a lot of excellent two channel SACDs out there of two channel recordings. I've tried some.
However, what about multi-channel SACDs?
I'm looking for some opinions on what you think are good surround recordings on SACD that DO NOT have goofy mixes with instruments and voices in the rear channels. I don't want to be in the middle of the band/orchestra; I want to be in the Hall/room/club with the appropriate ambient sound, as a member of the audience. (remember, that's SACD, not those horrible "compressed" DTS & DD recordings)
I was looking for a previous thread on this subject by doing a search, but there's way too many and I was going cross-eyed. If you know such a thread, point me at it please, or just leave your thoughts here.......Thanks.
