Have any of you heard any Super Audio CDs? How much better do they sound than normal CDs?

SACD ? hm. after "super quality" flac codecs , aac, dvd-audio, 5.1ds, now theres super audio. i wonder if this musical placebo will ever stop.
people are forgetting that sound recordered in normal conditions ( eg.studio ) will never be perfect, thus digital mastering that "repairs" the sound is kinda overrated, and its a paradox. the best instrument ? human ear. and theres no way to replace what you can hear ( live ) with what you can remaster. on any type of gear. unless your ear has real capability of feeling the difference between few merely different khz's bitrates,then yes - that would deserve a cover in times,and proper medical examination.

SACDs have been out since 1999, maybe they will catch on now that the PS3 supports them.

SACD requires dedicated SACD hardware. It isn't going to be enjoyed unless you have the equipment to replicate the quality, such as a nice pre-amp and electrostatic speakers.

I remember seeing a whole section of SACDs on play.com years ago, strikes me as something that won't catch on

I got bjork's medúlla on sacd but since I don't have an sacd player I can only hear the cd part. and therefore I can't answer this topic's question. so I don't know why I'm replying.
