Reviews:

Stereo Only (review from amazon.com)
While this disc is remastered from a 50kHZ master and is a working SACD hybrid disc - it is in stereo only. There is no use of the surround channels or LFE channel on this disc. It does sound marginally better than the Telarc CD release - but only marginally. This disc is a waste of your SACD player's time and yours as well.

Had any of the product information stated that this was a stereo only disc, I would not have spent money on it.

If and only if you don't already own the standard Telarc CD release of this material, you might consider it for purchase. But please be aware that it is ONLY IN STEREO. It is certainly NOT a good use of your funds.

The over powering Sound!! (review from amazon.com)
The sound this album produces goes beyond your imagination- with the appropriate equipment of course. They used real life canon's to create the sound effects.
