SACD Titles Please

[Nash__]

Hi just venturing into the world of SACD and would like some recommendations please. I like all sorts of genres providing it basically sounds good if you know what i mean - makes your hifi sing!

I've tried to google for online stores for a list of available titles but there doesn't seem to be too much modern stuff for example.

Anyhow, any of your favourite sacd's you can recommend would be appreciated!

Thanks

Nash,

Thanks for your suggestions - 2 channel & multichannel dont really mind at all. As I said I will listen to anything that is well produced and makes the most my setup. Can you also recommend a good site to purchase from. I usually by cd's etc from Amazon Marketplace, CVD-Wow but wondered if there was any sites that specialise,

thanks again

Jeff Waynes musical version of The War Of The Worlds, a must have , I got my copy of this from ASDA for £9.99

Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon is also a must have SACD, though I prefer the DVD audio version

I've also ordered SACD's from cdjungle but found their delivery times were less than impressive

I found a suprising list on HMV - here will order a couple of your suggestions - thanks again

Ordered
War of the Worlds - Ebay
Kraftwerk & Avalon - Amazon

Just ordered the following from Acoustic Sounds Inc

Dark Side of the moon SACD, The Beatles – Love DVD-A & CD, Mark Knopfler Shangrila – DVD-A & CD all for $74 shipped (call it £40) via Fedex priority seems ok what do you think of the prices?
The availability of hybrid recordings is unbelievable. Will let you know how the shipping turns out,

take a look @ www.AIXrecords.com as well I got Zephyr: Voices Unbound which is an AMAZING acapella dvd-audio - there are 2 mixes and 3 soundtracks - the DVD-A and DTS are stage mix (you are in the center of 12 singers) DD is audience mix, DD and DTS have video
