Analogue Productions SACDs


Hi.  I have a question about the Doors SACDs from Analogue Productions/Acoustic Sounds. They are listed as hybrid SACDs, with a CD stereo layer and an SACD 5.1 surround layer.  Would the SACD layer play in stereo if I only have a stereo system?  I asked one of their salesman yesterday, and he didn't know!

It should say what is required to play the disc on the back cover of the jewel case, either something like "This product is a Hybrid SACD designed to play in both CD and SACD players, as well as SACD compatible DVD players." (from the back of one of my AP SACDs) or "This disc is designed for use in Super Audio CD players only".  Another clue is to look for the Compact Disc logo.  There should be information on the back of the case in some form describing whether it can play on a CD player or not.

I have a few Analogue Production SACDs and they work fine on my 2 channel stereo system. As long as you have a SACD player you're all set.

       A friend of mine purchased a used OPPO BDP 103 Player in mint condition for 350.00 and it works fine and sounds fine.

I use a gameDR zero clearance technology 10 - brush cyclone cleaner to  occasionally  clean the lens on my player. It's works on Blue Ray and HD DVD players.
