Mark Knopfler SACD "Shangri-La" Anyone Got This ?

After a few weeks of being messed around by a certain nameless etailer I finally took delivery of the new MK offering on SACD expecting to find the usual high sound quality which has been one of the consistant features of his solo work (& Dire Straits too IMHO)
The sound on the SACD is frankly disappointing and seems to have all the bass stripped from it whereas the CD track is much better with bass by the shovel load - my other SACD's still sound excellent (PF / PG / Beck to name but three) so it is not my equipment failing me - has anyone else got the SACD & would like to comment (?) - is it possible I have a faulty SACD or maybe this is what the SACD is supposed to sound like ?
Look forward to hearing from you ... Paul
