Hi All,
I do eventually plan to get a Uni player (eyeing the Yammy DVD-S1500 that's coming out) but I want to start buying some hybrid SACDs so as to "lessen the pain" by spreading out purchases and having content ready to listen to when I buy the player in June/July.
As such, I want to start by purchasing hybrids that I can enjoy on my current CD system and then play when I get the Uni player. I have Norah's debut SACD/CD and the CD layer sounds fantastic, especially compared to the CD only version (which my girlfriend has).
So now my question is: how are the Nickel Creek SACD's redbook (CD) layer? Is it better than the regular CDs? I ask because I already own both Nickel Creek CDs so if there's no improvement I can wait until after I purchase the player to get these SACDs.
However if the CD layer on the SACD is superior to the regular CD version, I will pick these up now.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
