Hva er SHM-SACD?
Fra før har vi SHM-CD. Dette er et forbedret, mer transparent polycarbonat materiale som CD'er lages av. Dette nye materiale gir mer skarptskårede og presise fordypninger i selve materialet på CD platen. Noe som medfører mer presis avlesning av CD-platen med mindre jitter og feil, og i siste instans; bedre lyd!
Utviklet av JVC og Universal Music i samarbeid. Gis kun ut på det japanske markedet.
Her er hva Robert H. Levi i Positive Feedback skriver om SHM-CD:
I first listened to the regular CD supplied, focusing on Stan Getz/Joao Gilberto "Corcovado." It sounded quite smooth and focused with very good definition and depth. I then played the Verve 20 Bit CD Reissue from 1997 which sounded a tad brighter, but thats about it. I then listened to the SACD Verve Reissue from 2002 on my ModWright 9100 with tube power supply it was improved in every way. It was SACD of course, but it had substantially more definition and air better depth, too. It was then I played the SHM-CD of this cut. Oh boy, it sounds like the SACD!
What? How could this be? A CD formulation that actually works? I tried the SHM-CD on all my CD sources: ModWright Sony 9100, 999, E.A.R. Acute Tube CD Player, and Alesis Masterlink. I heard improvement on ALL players with the SHM-CD versus the regular editions.
I heard more definition, more air, smoother textures and nuances, a lot more depth, reduced digititus of all types, more of an analog sound and feel, bigger dynamics micro and macro the whole ball of wax. I put some LArt du Son on the SHM-CD for even better results.
Noe sier meg at forbedringa med SHM vil være enda større for SACD, enn for CD.
