RCA LIVING STEREO SET 3 (10 x SACD)

All 10 of the 3rd edition of RCA's extremely popular Living Stereo SACDS for one low price! This series of SACD’s has been a labor of love for RCA. Using 21st century technology to present the most sought-after 20th century classical recordings was a monumental undertaking. Finally, a major label has gotten it right; the multi-channel mixes are only employed on the original three-track recordings and only presented in a 3.0 Mix (utilizing only the front left, right and center channels). No “forced” pseudo rear-channel engineering! All the discs in this series have a dedicated stereo mix and the multi-channel mix is either also in two-channel or in three-channel ('front only” surround layer) when available. (All discs have a stereo and multi-channel layer, but some discs have the same two-channel stereo program on both layers.)
