SACD

SACD: super audioCD. A music recording and playback system jointly developed by Sony and Philips, developed as a potential successor to the CD. SACDs operate at a sampling rate of 2,8224 MHz, ie 64 times that of a CD (see CD).

An advantage over the CD is the 6 times higher storage capacity, which means that more music fits on a "disk". If you play SACDs on normal CD players, you have that Klang only in conventional CD quality. You need a SACD player for this, but it can also play CDs.
