How can you not have multichannel system
The Fillmore SACD IS done VERY right IMO. It's just that not all SACDs are done correctly. I think its something about the live stuff with the audience all around you that may make it seem more immersive...hence better. It is on par with the live ... 
What piece of music can you play over & over?

Considerable Improvement with EAC Rips
