catching up on some PTX

I was wondering if anyone might be able to answer a question for me. Reconciling my recent treasure trove of new music and can't figure out for the life of me if the Living Stereo Sampler (yellow and black one, CD1 in the redbook box set) was released stand-alone in SACD? All my searching foo can't seem to find it. Can anyone help?

Also, I see a new Series 2 big box set. I assume these weren't / won't be released on SACD as well?

[Dusty Chalk]

Yeah, they haven't released any Living Stereo on SACD in years.  And no samplers, AFAIK.

[luvdunhill]

Thanks Dusty. I was specifically asking about CD1 in the box set, but I can't find any mention of it so I assume they started with CD2.

Also the Series 2 set seems erratic on how they organized things. I am not sure if it's worth me buying as there are odd crossovers and nearly empty discs.

Ok next question: what are the typical sales that folks like Music Direct, Acoustic Sounds and Elusive Disc have? Are there pretty regular yearly sales?

[aardvark baguette]

i know hdtracks has sales any day ending with 'y'.

i wanna say AS and elusive have free shipping on occasion.

Right, but nothing more like blanket percentage off your order type things?

[skullguise]

They will likely have something for Memorial Day, they often tend to run sales for holidays.  I don't get emails from Acoustic Sounds, but do for Elusive & Music Direct; and their sales often mirror each other fairly closely.

 

10% off (sometimes music & accessories, sometimes all items), plus free shipping over $99, etc.

[luvdunhill]

Thanks! If anyone sees anything, a heads up would be nice. I already have my shopping list ready and slush fund funded
