Never bought a sacd disc but would one sound any better than, say, a
digitally re-mastered cd, played back on a cd player (not sacd cd
player)?

Depends on whether the the CD layer was taken from the same master as
the SACD layer.

I have a DualDisc of Lee Ann Womack's greatest hits. The CD side sounds
compressed, the DVD-A side doesn't. The stereo mixes have minimal
compression, the multichannel mixes are in some places completely
different. I think I prefer the stereo mixes for the most part.
