Music Direct was my main SACD source for gear and SACD'S. I haven't ordered from them the last few years due to their ARROGANCE!!
I will never buy gear
from them and as few discs as possible.

Ironically, QLinda, a few years ago I dropped a small fortune with Music Direct and their sales department used to be extremely courteous and most helpful. And I did score some great deals from them and at times they even included free MoFi Stereo SACDs as a 'bonus!'Music Direct was my main SACD source for gear and SACD'S.

What still riles me is the upcoming release of S&G Stereo SACD of Bridge Over Troubled Water. Obviously, a pristine QUAD analogue tape is still sequestered in Sony's vaults or Sony Japan wouldn't have announced it, then canceled it, a scant few years ago. And as we all know, the SONY Japan QUAD SACD in 7" packaging would've been priced on par [perhaps a few dollars more] than MoFi's Stereo ONLY SACD.Josh, their customer (dis)service manager is their biggest problem. Truly a flaming ASSHOLE.
I'm not buying it either.Until then .... the Stereo SACD of BOTW is off my WISH LIST!
Oh and they make no BONES about that. Their GAIN 2 System is only geared to produce STEREO/MONO SACDs .... Their bad especially with Pure Audio ATMOS BD~As becoming ALL THE RAGE.Music Direct is anti-surround.
I have the SONY MASTERSOUND 24k Gold EditionMoFi put out a Gold CD of Bookends, which I bought and sounds great.
All I can tell you is the liner notes are a bit deceiving saying it was remastered, whenever possible, from the finest analogue sources available and that the disc was mastered by Doug Sax and manufactured in Japan.Wasn't Bridge Gold put out before Sony found the masters lost in their vaults?
Old Friends box was from the found masters, as were the later expanded CD's and the new album box.
