How does SACD sound on a regular 2 channel cd player? (keep tech talk simple)
I already have "dark side of the moon" on regular cd, and was wondering how the sacd version would sound on a regular cd player. Also I have a dvd player with 5.1 sound but no sacd player, would I have to hear them in 2.0?

With the cd layer, would it sound exactly like the 92 remaster or would it sound slightly better.

I was wondering the same thing. I've never picked this up on disc and have been tempted to every time i go to Target (the non-SACD version is on sale for $9.99). I don't plan on getting a SACD player for a very, very long time, so I don't know if it would be worth it to buy the new edition.

The CD-layer of Dark Side of the Moon is a new remix and does sound better than it has before. Of course, it doesn't sound as good as the true SACD mix.
