Advice: My first SACD?

When I got my Sony SCD-1 player, the first SACD I put in was Charlotte Church's Enchantment. I picked Track 6, The Flower Duet. It sounded awesome! Mariah Carey's #1's is another good one that shows of the range in her voice. I've also enjoyed listening to some of the Bob Dylan remastered SACD's. I guess it depends on your taste but I am sure you will be impressed with whatever you choose, I just hope the SACD format doesn't die out.

Rwwear, yes the SACD of The Wall Live in Berlin is sonically impressive. I find no reference in the documentation as to mastering technology other than 5.1, Abbey Road studio, & Mercury Records. I have listened to it only in 2CH stereo.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

Another good one is Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.

What kind of music do you like?

The advantages of SACD appear most obvious if you listen to something you're already familiar with. I remember being amazed by Ziggy Stardust even though I wouldn't rate it as one of the great SACD releases, but I knew the CD version so well that the SACD blew me away.

Ditto for Sketches of Spain by Miles Davis.

If you like Opera, check out Falstaff by Verdi on LSO Live.

If you like Orchestral, there is a lot to choose from. Name some favorite composers for us.
