    Cool.

    Keep us posted if you pick up the SACD and give us a review.

    I got one of their remastered CDs (SBS) and wasn't really all that impressed with the SQ.

    Long time sab fan...(first saw them live right before Sabotage came out).

    Oh Lord Help Us! Ozzy is sometimes hard to take in 2 channels! Now he'll be live and 5.1 wide :eek:

    BTW, long time Black Sabbath fan, but I can only take them in 1 cd or lp at a time doses.

    This wouldn't have been my 1st choice for multi-ch. Sab, but it's a nice start.
    I'd have preferred the first album, with 'Warning' & 'Black Sabbath' on it, for surround.
    Not complaining really, just a critique.
    Am I being greedy?

    I have the CD, 180g vinyl, and have the SACD on order. ;)

    IMO, that's my best sounding piece of vinyl.

    Quadraphonic Mix?
    Is this similar to Qsound, or old school 4 channel stereo. Never did the Quadraphonic Mix thing.
    Ben
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects.

    It was never released on SACD, I thought everyone knew that by now. However, it has been released on SHM-SACD as Erik noted.

    The link in the second post is incorrect! That link points to the 3 disc 5.1 audio dvd/cd set.

    Here is the correct link at Amazon for the shm-sacd.
