New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Transports differ

Although what you say is accurate, I believe that some transports deal better with these disc imperfections than others. I don't think the Sonys are particularly tolerant. Hybrids are more susceptible because the semi-transmissive layer only reflects 25% of the incident light, and although this is enough to drive the receptors, I think it's an area of weakness. I was totally supportive of non-hybrid SACDs and was never in favour of hybrids (a position I maintain).

Geoff
