Kind of Blue SACD question?

I'm wondering if my "Kind of Blue" SACD is defective and would appreciate it if someone who knows this SACD would advise me. The issue is that I have to crank my amp, I mean really crank it, relative to every other CD/SACD that I own in order to listen to it at my preferred volume. I'll appreciate anyone sharing their experience with this SACD

Dave, Mine is multichannel too. I wasn't aware that there is a two channel SACD. Rcrerar, do you have the two channel version?

My volume control's range is from 7 o'clock to 5 'oclock. I know that volume isn't always linear but for normal listening my useable range if from 9 to 11, 12 if I'm pissed at the neighbors. I play this SACD at around 3 o'clock. At this level there is too much noise coming from the SACD relative to the music content.

Alright, maybe we're getting somewhere. I have a Modwright Sony. But can anyone explain to me how a CDP can selectively choose certain SACDs to do this to.
