Your explanation was incredibly detailed and very helpful. Everything you said makes perfect sense to me. I had heard that Japanese SACDs were often made from dupes, but was careful to not make any decisions until I did an A/B myself. This morning, just for kicks, I borrowed my friend's Japanese copy of Norah Jones' "Come Away with Me." The differences were as you stated, and this was before I read your post. The Japanese pressing did indeed sound slower and not as clear and crisp as the American copy (which wasn't a great demo of SACD's potential, to begin with). And the highs were a little "peakier" too. Again, thanks for your great explanation. It saved me a lot of money! :)
