| KIND OF BLUE You need to listen to it then.This is a new version and it is the best version I have heard on digital.Have you heard it? | |
| KIND OF BLUE Its 192Khz and 24 bit but if you search the web you'll see how they redid the master tapes........that seems to be the most crucial part.This version and the Mono version are really on a different level from previous digital incarnations | |
| Miles Davis The Original Mono CD's My set just arrived today. I have only listened to KOB.I noted elsewhere that this version and the HD Tracks version look identical.I can confirm that this Mono version from the box set sounds every bit as good as the HD Tracks stereo version whic... | |
| KIND OF BLUE I think we may just have the best digital version of KOB ever.The new HD tracks version.... this is a new version.Superb clarity with the edge taken off of the horns, this really is special. | |
| R.I.P. Brent Rainwater a.k.a. Very sad news. | |
| Your top 3 worst purchases ever Also Ridge Street Audio balanced interconnect as above and also Cardas neither did anything for me.Adopting or trying SACD at the lower level-real waste of time-I still think SACD only shines on the odd disc..... | |
| Luxman 505u matching I have the Luxman and use via balanced inputs an Oppo 105 into a pair of Proac 2.5's.Great sound and it may well be still running in as both units were new. | |
| Getting into SACD I would try the Oppo 105 because imho it is a fantastic Redbook player.I can't say it is better than the Arcam because I haven't heard it but I the new 105 is designed for superior audio.Audition is the way to go if that is possible. | |
| Rush Live in 2013 - Clockwork Angels I've listened to the album a lot Steve-it doesn't really grab me-it's flawed has some great moments but I really don't think they've got a grip of their production and arguably arrangements in recent years.It's probably a good/great album of old s... | |
| KIND OF BLUE Initial thoughts are that the FLAC version of the Pristine Audio doesn't add much but there are noticeable level differences the K2 version is much louder.Indeed my initial thoughts were that PA version was maybe more relaxed sounding.What is inte... | |
| KIND OF BLUE I have just bought the FLAC version of the Pristine Audio version-will get back with an update. | |
| Rush Live in 2013 - Clockwork Angels I saw this tour in Glasgow indeed I've seen every tour since R30 and saw them around 8 times between 1979-83.It was good pretty great in parts I preferred the set list on the Time Machine Tour...CA is an ok record but not much more than that imho. | |
| The best CD Player for the money I recently replaced an Ayre CX-7 with an Oppo 105-considering it plays multi-formats it must be a consideration for the title in this thread.It is a very good CD player. | |
| KIND OF BLUE Exocet954-glad you are enjoying the disc. | |
| KIND OF BLUE Phasecorrect have you heard the K2 version? If not that is some statement.Also the Japanese Mastersound CD version surpasses the Legacy edition in sound as well. |
