 Hi!
The truth is that I have not had the chance to listen to SACDs, even though there re many more titles than DVD-A, as I understand. If I am not mistaken, I could play these on the PS3 (60GB version)? I suppose PS3 will give me surround sound through its optical output, as the Meridian equipment still does not support HDMI.
The real shame, for me, is that both these formats seem to be dead. Everybody seems to be much more interested in HD than music. |
The 60GB PS3 can play SACDs, but only through HDMI due to DRM
. SACDs have the potential for the same exact audio quality as on DVD-As so you will be in for a real treat when Meridian gets an HDMI unit out
.
Both formats are kind of dead in part because of their little war and in part because audio doesn't get the emphasis it should, most people want the quick impress through video.
