the SHM CD Experience

Aja is remarkable.

What I found though a Google search is that the SHM CDs only differ from regular CDs in their enhanced transparency polycarbonate on the read side of the CD.

They may sound better than regular CDs, but how much more can "enhanced transparency polycarbonate" cost than the plastic used in standard CDs to warrant their $28 cost?

In other words, it seems to me like a marketing twist to sell more back catalog product without a significant materials outlay.

$28 per SHM CD?

I think I'll buy more $10 SACDs...

IMO...

Thank you Tvad.. and I agree - I've been buying new SACDS cheaper than redbook

not to hijack the thread, but where are you guys getting $10 SACDs

Primarily from Amazon used marketplace sellers, although new SACDs are available for $10.

For example, if you search Amazon.com for "A Love Supreme SACD", the results will show a few new available for around $10.

Amazon.com is a good resource for me.
