About your comment: "I know that I'm compromising by not currently going with the SACD" -- one need never, ever apologize for resisting the Sony marketing machine. Now that you have upgraded you CD, maybe it's time to learn about DVD-A. Happy listening -- and congratulations for raising that Spousal Approval Factor!

In response to the last post by Dan B. about the Sony marketing machine:

1. True, they do go overboard with way too much market share in all forms of the audio business.

2. Take a listen to SACD before ruling it out. This is one technology that may actually carry on. In other words, don't rule out SACD just because it was developed and now is highly marketed by Sony.
