Seigen Ono: Forest and Beach        (1 of 1 found this review helpful)
  June 10, 2011

I recently found out that Acoustic Sounds is having an ongoing SACD sale and while browsing through the titles, I noticed that the title Forest and Beach was available on sale for a *very* reasonable price (listed in Japan for ¥4725 but is in fact OOP).

What Was Your First SACD?
November 10, 2014
I was vaguely aware of DVD-A and SACD, but I picked up "So peaceful, simple and strong" by Seigen Ono while in Tokyo because of the artist. The liner notes had an explanation of SACD and the approach used for the surround layer. This had me intrigued and soon I was hooked... [t=646] ... more
