I am hooking up my DVD player for SADC and was wondering from a music purist point of view, do you listen to it in stereo or 5.1? Appreciate any help.
I prefer SACD for the 5.1 tracks especially for live music recorded in arenas and concert halls. I personally can’t tell the difference between well recorded CD and SACD 2.0 tracks, but then I’m fairly new to having a nice audio system. However, I have noticed that often older songs converted to SACD seem to be re-mastered and mixed to sound better than their older counterparts. As Peter said “…it depends on the recording…”
I feel like I am amongst a good group of people.
No worries, there are very good cult deprogrammers these days.

 These forums are worth their weight in gold just for the daily chuckles.

Gary, another welcome. Since when attending a concert the sound doesn't come to us only as direct sound from the front, but at least equally as reflections from other angles, "purity" calls for trying to more nearly duplicate that at home. When playing multi-channel source materials such as most SACDs, they should certainly be listened to in surround. When listening to CDs or other 2-channel material they should also be listened to in surround by applying DPLII or a similar mode which extracts the surround ambience which had to be mixed into the front channels(there was no place else to put it)and steers it to the surrounds where it belongs. This brings listening realism a little closer.
-----------------------------------
Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

That's interesting John. I didn't realize that was your take on 2-channel music as well. Would you say that's a majority opinion or more of your personal preference (or both?). The reason I ask is because I thought that the majority opinion was that 2-channel music should be listened to in direct stereo mode with only the fronts and subs involved.
Thanks,
Jason
