John:
Thanks for the info, I've been considering the stereo SACD solution for a while.
I apologize to everyone for my rants on this subject, but what started this for me was ncpl's note that Dark Side was going to be an SACD title. I'm not a big Pink Floyd fan, but it just crystallized that I'm missing a lot of important music locked into a Meridian system.
I know Meridian looks at this board. I think its important to let them know this is an issue for those of us who believe in them and have invested in their products. I'm not sure if it will change things, but why not try?
Cheers!
