What puzzles me is 24/96. Why stop at 96? Why not go to DXD? Is there a reason not to? Does the set-up change if the resolution is bumped to it? They can't be worried about ...
Howdy.
Like most music lovers.....I pulled the trigger. as it were, and purchased yet again another Sacd version of this truly classic album. This being my fourth. ...
The duplication of releases is driving me nuts. Dutton did a superb transfer and release of these recordings just a few years ago. The vaults are not empty of things that have ...

Released April 28, 2024, as a single disc SACD hybrid in a card sleeve. A bit surprisingly for a Japanese SACD release the disc is made/glass mastered by Sony DADC in Europe.
There is no indication of mastering provenance, and the Phonographic Copyright year is given as 2015. Whilst the Burning Shed UK website states it uses remastered material from 2010.
This edition also includes a "Collectors Edition" booklet as a separate item. This booklet was also used for an earlier 2015 Japanese two-disc SHM-CD release (VSCD4304/5) of the title, albeit with the bonus disk tracks removed from the back of the booklet.
The run times for these two releases are essentially the same - SACD 55.50 v's SHM-CD 55.52
Listened to back-to-back it is difficult to land on any real differences between them. Maybe the SHM-CD is ever so slightly brighter, but there sure isn't much in it.
So certainly, it's worth getting this new SACD version if you don't already have one of the earlier 2009 remastered CD versions. After that though positive differences are likely small.
