oh dear.

Almost as bad as my recent visit to a Sony centre, where although they knew just about what it was, they could not demo it as Sony does not give them SACD demo discs !

I think the Sony's marketing of SACD is truely crap - £££'s on point of sale material so shops can disply huge SACD logo's but nothing spent on actually allowing consumers to hear it.

Sony supplies 2 free SACDs with stock players, and a Sony merchandiser will replace as required, a Sony Centre would have SACDs for sure, I guess the staff just couldn't be bothered.
