Doug, I find that the vast majority of SACDs I own sound noticeably better than the corresponding CDs, remastered or otherwise. Some SACDs such as Boston Boston and the Billy Joel discs are lackluster by SACD's standards in my opinion, and that could be a result of poor original masters or poor authoring for SACD. Still, the SACDs are better than the CDs.
I also find that most remastered CDs are much better than the original CDs. In many cases, my original CDs date back to the '80s, and many rock and pop CDs were mastered for CD very poorly in those days. Examples of remastered CDs that really impress me are Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Damn the Torpedoes and The Doors remasters.
If you are able to get the 'C333ES at Tweeter, do post your thoughts.
