In Reply to: Only one good reason that I can think of posted by madisonears on March 12, 2014 at 22:14:11:
I have hundreds of SACDs and CDs--I gave up on surface-noisy, cult-fetish LPs decades ago--and not a single CD sounds as good as the poorest SACD. The multichannel Classical SACDs sound so much better than 2-channel CDs or LPs, the latter aren't even close.
Multichannel Classical SACDs sound MUCH-more natural and spacious than any CD or LP could ever hope to sound.
So there's one reason, Drew. The other reason is overall resolution, with SACDs superior again.
