Did some critical listening to the Elton John SACD last night. Lots of highs that I don't find on the CD's. I played one of the better quality CD's afterwards and the highs were not as well defined, but the lows and mids sounded similar. Although, the Elton John SACD did hit some lows that were much lower. Probably not an SACD thing, just lower notes were played, IMO.

The other CD: Sarah Mclachlan Wintersong

One unpleasant result is the highs hurt my ears more than before. I'll either have to turn the volume down or apply a filter. The cat seemed to notice the difference too.

I also ordered a Heart SACD called Live in Seattle
