Just receive this nice box yesterday, for anyone who cares, the Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique SACD DSD layer was from a 176KHz 2.0 mix. Too bad, no 5.x mix on the SACD.

I agree with Symphonie fantastique's mixes, it is shame that there isn't multi-channel mix - also Dvorák's Ninth would be much better on surround.

Guys, I just ordered this from the amazon.co.uk site for an unbelievable price of GBP 19.99. Grab it before its gone. Use the site's links.

Thanks for the tip- and the postage to NZ is hardly anything!
The major inclusion here on SACD is Berlioz's Te Deum, a great and underrated composition.

Likewise. I bought this just for the Te Deum. In addition, its not a bad deal to get the very noted LSO Les Troyens. I did not find any specifics on the recordings like whether the Te Deum is Multi-Channel SACD or whether a libretto is included for the Troyens. Waiting to post these details when I get this set. I know that some of these are 2 channel SACD.

For 19.99 pounds, I took the plunge.

Some of the discs in this set are Red Book CD so be careful to check what you want before you buy.

There are 8 SACDs, so for those alone, 20 GBP is a great deal.

Ditto, Claude.
Placed my order, as well. At that price they're practically giving it away for such quality/quantity content.
I even look forward to checking out the DVD.

Are sung texts printed out in the booklet?
