"Hybrid SACD" means that both SACD and regular CD recordings are on the same disk. Having
a Hybrid SACD does NOT guarantee surround sound or improved sound...you NEED...
a CD player capable of reading SACD discs. If you don't have said equipment your regular CD
player is only going to read the normal CD selections, not the SACD selections, resulting in
a less dynamic sound in most cases.
IF the SACD has 5.1 surround sound you will need an amplifier capable of splitting the SACD
signals then sending them to (another NEED) 4 or more speakers and a sub-woofer. Due to
the better sampling rate of the SACD over the regular CD you can receive a greater 'dynamic'
sound or wider ranging surround sound from the 5.1 SACD. This SACD is NOT 5.1 Surround.

[ The REVIEW ]
I do not think Cosmos Factory is the best example of an SACD/DSD album on the market. I am
not sure if it is the source material, the remastering, or my mid-level stereo Denon/ Polk Audio
system; or some combination thereof. There seems to be an slight improvement in the dynamic
sound; a bit more clarity in the soft to loudest music. Maybe my ears deceive me. I have found,
generally, that most SACDs seem to benefit more from modern recordings than they do from
older masters and mixes.
This album was originally released in 1970 and is the fifth Creedence album. I enjoy this album
but it is not my favorite "Bayou Country". Creedence Clearwater covers 5 songs and presents 6
new ones. Generally a nice wide selection of songs. They put some horns in the mix as well as
some keyboard, so sonically they were widening their reach. The album still retains the 'country
rock', 'swamp rock' feel of Creedence and did well in the charts.
Even though it is not my favorite it is still a terrific album with wonderful music and lyrics. The
now classic blues tune 'Before You Accuse Me', the Orbison Sun classic 'Ooby Dooby', 'Up
Around The Bend' is a fierce rocker with a searing lead-in, 'Run Through the Jungle' goes primitive
and is almost hypnotic, and the radio favorite 'Who Will Stop The Rain' is a nice melody and has
a sad pensive quality to it. Then you have the Creedence jam piece 'I Heard It Through The
Grapevine', that old Soul Music favorite.
This album stretches Creedence Clearwater more than their previous efforts and they responded
to the challenge very well. There is the rage of rock to the sadness of the ballad. Then you got
everything else in between. It is a nice ride and a album full of images that you will remember.
I gave this disc 4 stars for the terrific range of music and lyrics but could not give it the extra
one star because I am not so sure the SACD improved the dynamic sound much more than the
remixed 40th Anniversary release. If you don't have a SACD capable player I wouldn't bother
unless it is about the same price as the regular CD.

[NOTES / Audio reference: I have a mid-entry stereo system. It is a Denon AVR-1910 amplifier
with a pair of Polk Audio 45B Monitor speakers and a Denon DVM-2845CI DVD/CD player with a
24-bit, 192kHz D/A converter. I listened to each disc in 'Stereo' only and at the same
listening level.]

If you're an audiophile, let's face it a lot of represses are terrible. No dynamics, veiled sound - ugh.
Not this one baby. There is no such thing as too loud playing it. The band is RIGHT THERE in front of you.
Get it while the getting's good...
My record player gets the job done and after listening to the whole record I didn't detect any skips or scratches so the quality of the media is also 5/5.
