The recording session for the final volume of the complete SACD edition in sound and picture. The members of the Mandelring Quartett (www.audite.de/ensemble.php?ensemble=47) about their experience with Shostakovitch's music and the recording sessions. More information at www.audite.de/sc.php?cd=92530 .
Don't dismiss it due to the number of mics; that's just ridiculous! The results are stunning, both sonically and musically--I own their complete set of Shostakovich Quartets and play them on a multi-channel SACD audio system--it's just amazing. The sound has extraordinary presence but also plenty of natural-sounding ambiance. The playing is incredibly intense and virtuosic.

Det tycker jag att det är men bara se till att det oxå är en bra cd spelare för det finns inte så många sacd skivor ha det i åtanke.

Yes, absolutely!
To listen to music in surround is a new and very impressive dimension compared to stereo!

Would you say that a SACD player is worth the investment?
