I finally got around to getting a sacd. I listened to it today on my Pioneer 563a. Did I mention it was a Father's Day gift. I was given the Who's rock opera Tommy by one of my wonderful children, since I was either too lazy to do so myself or I didn't take advantage of this media due to old fogey cynicism. The listening experience can only be described by me with one word--interesting.

I take it that's a mutichannel SACD, then? It takes a bit of getting used to, and not all mixes are created equal.

It is a multichannel mix. It sounded kind of gimmicky, during the first 3 or 4 tracks, but the pinball wizard was very nice.

I would also highly recommend the DVD-Audio of "Tubular Bells 2003" by Mike Oldfield.

I have the same player. Love it. For the price you can't go wrong. I have several SACD's and agree that they are not created equal. I made the mistake of buying a few of my favorite artists on SACD the same day I picked up the pioneer. I look at the reviews now on all SACD or DVDA releases.
