For those who don't know what SACD is:

Super Audio CD uses a new and radically different technology called Direct Stream Digital (DSD) to convert music into a digital signal that can be stored on a disc. Compared to the traditional PCM method (the technology used for CD), DSD offers a much higher resolution by following more closely the original wave form of music. With a frequency response of over 100kHz and a dynamic range over 120dB across the audible frequency range – some 64 times higher resolution then CD - Super Audio CD offers music reproduction that reveals details you just can’t hear on a normal CD.

Since Sony is the co-developer of this technology I'm hoping it will find it's way into their new console. Anyone hear anything on it yet?

I believe Super Audio CD is the format Sony was trying to push right after the patent on standard CDs expired.

I could be wrong, though.

I doubt PS3 will play SACDs, even some of Sony's midrange home-theater and stereo systems don't support SACD.

SACD rocks, I just wish there were more albums released on it, I currenly only have two.
