On the basis of the de Waart Zarathustra and Ashkenazy Belfagor etc I'd give Exton discs a wide berth, at any price. These two are among the most dismal SACDs I've heard so far - both artistically and technically.

I disagree with this assesment of Ashkenazy's Belfagor, and this has been discussed on here at /showthread/24468//y?page=first

I'm not sure what the differences are, but these are from a limited edition of 90 each:
Could this be the same "Direct Cut" used by the label Stockfish Records? Found the following on the labels homepage for Liszt: Late Piano Works - Peter Toth:
"In CREAR we used our SADiE DSD8 system for the recording, processing and mastering of this DIRECT-CUT-SUPER-AUDIO-CD – a brand-new system from the tradition-steeped British manufacturer of mastering equipment that allows simultaneous recording of 8 channels in Direct Stream Digital. The analogue signal from the microphone is converted at the input to DSD and is also maintained in DSD format throughout the processing stages. The end result is then obtained in the SADiE DSD8 – the “cutting master” (AIT tape) – which is later transferred directly to an SACD glass master in the pressing plant.

Maybe someone can come up with a better translation than this:
Tokiwa Tooru and Direct Cut the difference
SACD Normal CD press, mass production could stand for the three types of services. Tamoer through the press process. (Master Tape MASUTASUTANPA>>> MAZASUTANPA SUTA NPA) for this, in no small part from a master tape sound changes are allowed. Such environment of the most higher commodity that has been sent to you as it is, and the master tape sound almost identical to what can be delivered and there's the day-to-day. So was the emergence of Ma Star tape from the first produced by the Master VAJINSUTANPA OKOSHITA from disk. Exactly one the diaphragm! To hear the sound of purity can be. The disks are produced only to the test as it passed things that, so far the audiophile is plausibly and you were told phantom disk. Master tape Seo-pamby of a raw purity is trapped in Dailekh Even cut SACD. This lack durability VAJINSUTA NPA from the precious disk. Indeed, Au Dio fans will be dying disk.

Shall we just ignore the cunning marketing effort such as this mythical "direct cut"?

And go to your grave wondering all that time whether there might have been a revelatory difference after all?

I think 'Seo-pamby' means it no longer sounds namby-pamby.
But notice the remarkable resemblance to Deepak Chopra new age speak- 'the sound of purity can be... exactly one the diaphragm!... raw purity is trapped... such environment of the most higher that has been sent to you as is...'

That it was done by Dailekhs I think is significant.

PCM will be X-terminated!
And Dr Who will end up looking like Mark Levinson, while his assistant will be Kim Cattrall.
