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!

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.

       Make sure you have the latest firmware update.

       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.

I honestly wouldn't waste my money on SACDs unless you have a top quality player or a good transport and DAC.  A regular CD in a good player or transport/DAC will sound better than a SACD in an Oppo or entry level player that has SACD capability.  There may be some benefit if they have been remastered and improved.
