  Even Better Than You Remember

Remember The Carpenters? Love them or loathe them, nearly everyone does. No wedding 'bash' would be complete without one or two of their tunes - 'We've Only Just Begun' being the most obvious and probably the most played. When I was younger, I perceived them to be very uncool, but as I've aged (and mellowed?) I now appreciate what a great voice Karen had and what a good selector of songs and arrangement Richard is.
Here we have a collection of The Carpenters greatest hits plus a couple I had not heard before (but I'm not a lifelong fan) presented in re-mixed 5-channel surround sound (as well as stereo) on an SACD. The sound quality is truly amazing - it has even convinced me that CDs CAN sound as good as vinyl! Each time I've listened, I've noticed something new and I keep going back to check what else there may be to find.

If you have a SACD player/5.1 channel system, you will love this recording. AMAZING sound!! the only way to listen to SACDs is with the proper setup, the Playstation 3 will play them if you get the proper receiver, one that decodes LPCM thru the HDMI cable, see ps3sacd.com for receivers that work, otherwise, get a SACD stand alone player and a 5.1 receiver/amp, see ebay, and ENJOY!!!!

  Emerse yourself with this great surround sound mix.
Review created: 10/07/09

For those who love the sappy popular sound of the Carpenters, this is a fabulous surround sound mix of their greatest hits. Take the sweet spot and you will be emersed with music from all corners of your room, all in high quality SACD bit rate. The remastering is spectacular - very enjoyable disc.

I purchased it on an album when it came out and I loved the music. Since I don't have a turntable, I wanted to get it on CD.

The SACDs just sound great, so much more like a live performance. Will enjoy this CD for years. Really, really really.
