    I picked it up, Danny--Thanks. It's worth the $25 shipped just so I don't feel compelled to follow all the eBay auctions for this when they come thru.

    Hmmm...may have to put that on my short list of SACDs to get.

    BTW - did Sabbath's Paranoid ever really make it to a commercially available SACD?

    Ah, a reminder of how much I hate multi-channel music.

    The mix is different with improved sound quality. But listening to it, I don't like hearing vocals and cymbals in the rear channels as I'm standing in the middle of the band. Since it was outputted from my PC to my pre/pro via HDMI, I couldn't immediately figure out how to down mix it to 2 channels only. Another negative, I don't like using a center channel for music, it drops the center image down a few feet in height and also in size.

    I was a little disapointed as well, some of my SACD's/DVD A's i like in 5.1 but most I don't. Alice Coopers WTMN on DVD A in 5.1 sounds fantastic as well as Elton Johns SACD's sound great in 5.1 but Metallica's Black Album sounds much better in 2 channel.
