Re: Digital transmission?

I have 9 CDs that are also SACD. One is the set of Brahms symphonies conducted by Sir Roger Norrington.* My 'Hi-Fi' is over 20 years old, and I only have CD (not SACD) player. I've often wondered whether I should get an SACD player to get the benefit of the extended frequency range for the few SACDs, so I guess that I am a 'listener' rather than an 'audiophile'.

I got them because I heard the conductor and orchestra play the Brahms 3rd symphony at the BBC Proms and it was incredible.

* Simply superb: Johannes Brahms Complete Symphonies. SWR Music, hassler classic SACD 93.267, Sir Roger Norrington and the Radio-Sinfonieorchester Stuttgart des SWR.
