Why haven't audiophiles enthusiastically endorsed the SACD?

If you want great CD sound of older remastered Cd's, take a listen to XRCD's. All the older recordings from the 60's and 70's that I have bought on XRCD's especially the XRCD24's are excellent. But you will pay out the nose for them, $25-35, well worth it for me.

First I've heard of XRCD, can this play on any CD Player? How does it compare to HDCD?

cheers,
