Re: [SurroundSound] Re: PS3 SACD rips

Are we still talking about the links i gave you all?  they're the same as any other ps3 sacd iso rip.  use Imgburn on windows machine to make the disc.  It may balk occasionally at some discs but will usually present a way to make it work...like if your image file is small enough to fit on one side of a dual sided dvd...ect.  Im guessing this is why Im the only one who commented on the quality of the disc?  It should write to disc just like any other out there...basically your sacd player supports it or it doesn't.  There is no middle ground at this point.  Does everyone that wanted that file have the link now?  Just email me if you need it...
