Well, while it's probably not the LAST thing we need (that would be
another manufacturer of $4000+ one-meter interconnect cables ), it is a
niche audiophile market, just like vinyl.
I don't think that vinyl is an audiophile-only product: it's the
trendy kids who like retro-everything who are buying it. The trouble
for SACD is that it doesn't have that market.
True but it is multi-channel and supports fans of multi-channel remixes of old stereo recordings that were done in multi track. Not my cup of tea but it is a meaningful market
