you heard it in surround yet?  pretty nice. 

 

Nah don't have a surround system. =\
 
I hope I'm able to grasp the full potential of the SACD somehow..

I've just returned from my trip to Paris, where I visited the Virgin Megastore on Champs-Élysées several times. On my previous posts to this thread I've tried to limit myself to only naming five albums per post, but this time it's pretty much impossible, so I'll just name all the discs I find worth mentioning.

James Horner - Avatar Original Soundtrack
Julia Fischer, Russian National Orchestra & Yakov Kreizberg - Tchaikovsky: Violin Concerto [hybrid SACD]
Keith Jarrett - Belonging
Keith Jarrett - The Carnegie Hall Concert [2 CDs]
Little Feat - Dixie Chicken [Mobile Fidelity gold CD]
Love - Forever Changes [remastered & expanded edition]
Martin O'Donnell & Michael Salvatori - Halo 3 ODST Original Soundtrack [2 CDs]
Nas - Illmatic
Owen Pallett - Heartland
Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain [deluxe edition double CD with 64 page booklet]
Portico Quartet - Isla
Sarah Vaughan - Sarah Vaughan featuring Clifford Brown [also includes Sarah Vaughan in the Land of Hi-Fi]
Sigur Rós - ( )
Sly & The Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin' On
Syd Barrett - The Madcap Laughs
Talk Talk - Spirit of Eden
Yardbirds - Roger the Engineer / Over Under Sideways Down [2 CDs, stereo & mono]
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever to Tell
Yoshihisa Hirano & Hideki Taniuchi- Death Note Original Soundtrack I
Yoshihisa Hirano & Hideki Taniuchi - Death Note Original Soundtrack II
 
In addition I bought one Blu-Ray (Dire Straights - Alchemy) and received a box set in the mail just one day before my trip to Paris (Louis Armstrong - Hot Fives and Sevens [4 CDs]).
 
I'm a fan of the Death Note anime, so finding the first two soundtracks was the best thing about my trip. After seeing the anime I think I tried to find out if the soundtrack had been released, but I must have done a very poor job, because I came up empty. It's also possible that I just forgot to search for the O.S.T. and just thought that I had searched for it online. Anyway, I just tried searching for it and found it with ease. There is a third O.S.T. so I just ordered it. While waiting for it to arrive I'll have to start ripping these CDs and scan their artwork... which might take me two weeks. Oh well...
 
If I feel motivated I might take a picture of the whole CD stack tomorrow and add it to this post.
 
Edit: Here's the picture. 

 

[TheWuss]

wow...  not only is that one huge haul, there's some serious quality there as well. 

 
Hope you enjoyed your trip!  Je regret que votre vacances sont fini!

The veils never stop surprising you, awesome songs all over the albums. Aswell as Nils Lofgrens amazing Acoustic Live.

Great stuff including the Death Note OST's. If you're interested in the third volume it features a lot of classical music.
