In my own opinion (Bosso, please step out of the room for a bit...thanks) is that the main draw to either of these formats is the ability to play multichannel material.
Have to disagree soundhound. SACD was introduced as a 2 channel format and that is still how many SACD listeners prefer to hear their music.

For classical, jazz, and some other acoustic music, in all honesty, I can get pretty much the same effect by feeding my surrounds with a studio reverb fed off the stereo fronts.

That may work fine for you,and I'm glad you have access to what is probably a fairly sophisticated system, but that's using technology that was prevelent in the 70's and 80's isn't it?. Surely one can do better for a lot less money these days by using_ say_ Dolby ProLogic II-M? It's even included in the 950!
