Yeah see, I'm not set up for SACD. The only hi-res format I can play is DVD-Audio. Besides, while my ears can certainly hear the difference between CD and high-res like SACD or DVD-Audio, I can't hear the difference between SACD and the DTS 96/24 audio on the US DVDs. Both sound exquisite to me.
For that reason, it's a matter of greenbacks to me.
