Moloko - Statues (SACD)

Bought it yesterday, and although i already had it on CD, have to say the SACD version is fantastic!

SACD really lends itself towards this type of music.

Is it multi-channel, or just high resolution stereo?

Full on multi channel.

Did a little test in stereo and multi channel, and the difference is amazing. Really envelops you.

One of those spontaneous purchases.

The reason I ask is, my local Virgin Megastore stocks only DVD-A (that is, the DVD-A's are in a separate section, whereas any SACD's are in with the normal stock, and probably not stocked at all).

Anyway, I know a good stockist for SACD's, EuphoricSounds.com. I will look on their website.

Thanks knightrider.

No probs.

I found Statues in with the normal CD's in Norwich.

Good site you recommended. Cheers for that. I want to get Norah Jones on multichannel SACD. Have you already got it?

Yes it's excellent. One of those albums you can let play all the way through, sounds great and really relaxes you...
