    Tony, those DTS DVD's you sent me.....damn bro. The Foreigner DVD I have the regular CD to compare with. All I can say is damn what a difference. Really no comparison. REALLY amazing difference. The imaging, clarity....bass....wow. I know I am late to the party with DTS/SACD. But today was the first time I really was able to sit and listen to these without the family around. At volume levels I like. Just really impressed with the results. Still need to buy some SACD's though.

    Tony, thanks again!

    My first two SACD's (Dark Side of the Moon, Celine Dion's Greatest Hits) I purchased because I had listened to them 100's of times
    before on Red Book CD's. My logic was that because I had heard them so many times on this format and memorized their sound, that it would be more noticeable to me if there was a difference with the SACD's. Wow! Blew me away! I would suggest getting an SACD or two of CD's you already have to make this same kind of comparison. Do a little research before you buy because not all SACD's arerecorded with the same quality. Amazon, and Ebay are where most of mine have been purchased.
