SACD (Super Audio CD)

The SACD uses a higher digital resolution than the audio CD and also offers the possibility to store multi-channel sound (surround sound). To enjoy the music in high-end quality, a special SACD player is required. Thanks to the hybrid function, most of the products marked "SACD" in our store can also be played on conventional CD players. In this case, however, the sound does not differ from that of a normal CD. In case of deviations, we point this out separately (non-hybrid).

H.Grünewald in FonoForum 6/86: "Jenen Stellenwert,den lange Zeit die Einspielung mit Maria Callas unter Victor de Sabata hatte,vermag nunmehr dank der besseren Technik diese packende Interpretation unter Colin Davis,mit der faszinierenden Mont- serrat Caballe,einem erotisch schillernden Ingvar Wixell als Scarpia und dem strahlend und locker geführten Tenor von Jose Carreras als Cavaradossi,einzunehmen.Die als Studio- aufnahme ..auf der Bühne von Covent Garden aufgezeichnete Einspielung bleibt sensationell."
