I don't own any as of yet, but is there any loss in quality in the hybrid compared to the straight sacd. I've been noticing that some imports note that there are only sacd compatible. Is there a go to place in the states that everyone uses? Anyone have any dealings with InandOut Records in England? looking for some progressive music like Genesis, Floyd, Yes, Gabriel ect....
Thanks Dave

no degradation in quality. Hybrids are dual-layered discs with an HD layer and a "redbook" (regular 2ch CD) layer. These are backwards compatible with CD players, but in order to play the DSD encoded HD layer, you need a SACD player.
No experience here with InandOut records. A company called Mobile Fidelity (MoFi) has some popularity in offering very high quality master recordings.design is where science and art break even. -
