I have the Mercury 2004 SACD. Does anyone know if the Mofi release is any better?

Haven't heard anything but the vinyl, sorry.

Do you find them to be of superior quality and worth the extra expense?

Of those I have yes but then again it is all in the master. As they say you can polish a terd but.....

Try picking it up from the clean end?

The Steve Hoffman forum is a better place to find information about one release vs another than here. Not that people here haven't done comparisons, there are more people over there and that forum is more music oriented than hardware oriented.

Just realized the link above is about redbook and not SACD. I'm sure there is discussion of the SACD's in there though, if not search that forum you'll find what you're looking for.afterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

I have the same SACD from 2004 (mercury) and should you upgrade it? I'd say no this one seems pretty good to me. I do have several others from MoFi and and I am happy with them.2 ch- Polk CRS+ * Vincent SA-31MK Preamp * Vincent Sp-331 Amp * Marantz SA8005 SACD * Project Xperience Classic TT * Sumiko Blue Point #2 MC cartridge
HT - Polk 703's * NAD T-758 * Adcom 5503 * Oppo 103 * Samsung 60" series 8 LCD -
I have the 2004 and the SHM-SACD. The SHM-SACD is better, but just. I can't see the MoFi being better than the SHM-SACD as both are from the master.Political Correctness'.........defined
