Getting interested in these, wonder if there's a good source for them.
Have a lot of DSD rips but looking for original disks.

Bit of a tough one, i don't think they're made anymore, i bought a couple off ebay and one of them turned out to be a regular CD

As they are in demand by some audiophiles and supply is very low, anywhere that has a good stock can charge good prices (for them) so I'm not sure there is anywhere.

Only got a few sacd's. Sometimes they sound better but mostly very similar to the cd cut on same disc

The problem I have is that the SACDs always sound better on my player compared to CD but the CD is better through my dac, whereas there is no digital out for SACD hence I'm no better off. I know there are ways round but that involves getting a new player with HDMI out plus an SPDIF converter or a chipped PS3 to rip them or some other roundabout faff which I just can't be bothered to do for my 5 or so discs.
