Free Music Review: Stereo SACD review
Hit: 5 Stars
I am a self-confessed stereophile. I'm afraid that I haven't gotten the whole surround sound thing, so this review is of the Stereo DSD SACD layer of this disc.
Love them or hate them, this would have to be without question one of the best Stereo SACDs to demonstrate the massive difference between a standard CD and a Stereo SACD. The depth and clarity of sound is nothing short of breathtaking. Reviewers are always citing Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' as one of the best, but if you forget genres for a second and just listen to this, you will never go back to a standard CD again.
I grew up with the Carpenters, and I happen to believe that Karen Carpenter had one of the most beautiful singing voices of the century. There, I've said it. No embarrassment here. Even if you don't agree, do yourself a favour and listen to this disc - it is a life-changing experience in music reproduction. Congratulations to Richard Carpenter and the other technicians involved in the SACD remastering. It is a masterpiece.
Five stars for sound quality alone.
