If you're a fan of Steely Dan's 1984 release, this album is for you. Hail by most recording engineers as one of the best engineered albums (ever), the SACD version is certainly no exception. The album, of course, features everybody from "The Don" and Walter Becker to Dire Straits' Mark Knopfler, Toto's Jeff Pocaro, and legendary studio drummer Steve Gadd.
If you're a surround sound enthusiast, this is the album for you. DSD technology is fairly new (new enough that not many studios are equipped to deal with it). It is completely different than it's PCM cousins in that it deals with a single bit rate with a 2.8 MHz sampling frequency. You cannot tell the difference between DSD and analog tape. Having said that, this technology is mostly used for archiving and restoration projects. To give you a frquency comparison, the DVD-A version of this will only carry a 24-bit/96,000 PCM load, which is the highest that DVD-Audio can carry. The compact disc can only carry 16-bit/44,1000. You can surely see where I'm going with this. With DSD, you get all the warmth and clarity of the analog tape without the hiss and the melting in your car. Spend a little extra money and buy the Hybird SACD. You won't be sorry.
