I have a small collection of sacd's but not enough... i am not big into classical and stereo sacd's don't often thrill me so what are some good 5.1 discs out there excluding classical music? I have these titles alread.

Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon"
You MUST try RYAN ADAMS "GOLD". It is 4.0(no center or sub) but truely pristine sounding. I still lean towards 2 channel for the most part:b

I second Ryan Adams and Dark Side. These are in heavy rotation in my system.

Three of my favorites are.........

David Bowie - "Heathen"

Jorma Kaukonen - "Blue Country Heart"

Mark O' Connor's Hot Swing Trio - "In Full Swing"

Mike Oldfield Tubular Bells has the original quad version & it's sounds very nice. As well you can look into the Diana Krall's SACDs - they also sound very good.

I just picked up the Allison Krauss & Union Station Live SACD. It is very good.

Philip Hamm · 04-19-2003, 01:50 PM

Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" yes. I think the Police "Every Breath You Take The Singles" is also multichannel

I'm not even a fan of Pink Floyd but DSOTM has an awesome 5.1 remix! I hope to hear of more classic albums being this well done on SACD.
