Markie, would you recommend this disc? I'm 'on the fence' about this one! Not very impressive DR scores!

Actually, with all the great equipment i have it still comes across "digitally tinny". The bottom and mid range is fantastic, but the highs have that 'too high" sound.
I also have the CD with DR's of 6's and 7's.
I just did some quick comparisons.
The SACD sounds a bit more beefy. Honestly not sure if I could tell the difference in a blind test. If you have the CD, I would just stick with that.
