| Music News Update March Thanks for the comments guys I'm glad this info and previous recommendations have pleased some of you.Slipknot-not sure about the Floyd vinyl,they have a habit of releasing their material on vinyl too but I haven't seen this confirmed.The official... | |
| Tok20000 is going pro Good luck Keith. | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? Rsbeck I think in your last post you've argued your point well.I know you think I take every opportunity to kick SACD-I don't and I truly hope to be able to return to it one day (in earnest)when it is a level that suits me.This post was expressed ... | |
| Review : Sugden A21a Int Amp Arj-this was my amp for a good while and I was a big fan of it.Plenty of power there despite it's low rating.Great value for money and a good balanced sound. | |
| rock and roll fantasy single Rich,The Supergroup thing is a fun idea but I can't really get my brain to work that way.The synergy between individuals doesn't work to a formula and one only has to look at the history of modern music to see the low achievements that happened wh... | |
| rock and roll fantasy single Rich,It could be I got my facts wrong-it's happened before!I was working from memory and I thought that was the origon of the song-I might do a little research of my own on it.I do know here in the UK Q magazine had a list of the greatest songs of... | |
| rock and roll fantasy single Rich,I think you'll find the U2 songs are mostly all "co-written" but if I remember correctly the song was mostly visualised and constructed by The Edge based on his break up from his wife-Bono took this central theme and give it a slightly more u... | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? The main point of this thread has been missed as the usual SACD debates are wheeled out.People who have bought the Dylan Hybrids and paid £13 here in the UK are now going to get the opportunuity to buy the same discs for £8.Let's say another major... | |
| AA DDE v3.0 vs. newer stuff In the $1000 range I would guess it would still stand up well.I had the same combo as you and it did better against a Linn Ikemi on rock but was well beaten on vocals and acoustic music.I also tried it against an upsampling Link DAC with power bas... | |
| After 5 years, format war? What format war? John's testament above echoes my own experience.Sadly the failure of the format to capture some Audiophiles imagination is also a testament to how badly SACD has been marketed.Even today here in the UK I doubt you could find more than 3 hi-fi deal... | |
| Apple Ipod Peaks-drunk as a skunk last night I shook the little guy to see if it would disturb it.No signs at all of skipping I would imagine it's perfect for jogging. | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? Rsbeck ok,chill sir.I'll take your word for the different mix on the layer,I haven't heard a different mix on any layer of the twenty or so SACD hybrids I own but I could be wrong and I see no point in digging out the disc to get caught in a petty... | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? I see Rsbeck you've taken my post as a dig at SACD - it wasn't,I simply don't understand Sony's policy other than greed and giving floating voters the chance to avoid buying SACD.There is no doubt those with good SACD replay are more than happy,no... | |
| SACD hybrids bad policy from Sony/Columbia? Sean,I'm not sure about the sales, Dylan has a hardcore following (I bought the lot upfront)and I think the sales from what I can gather are good probably better than expected-more than the Stones?I would expect so-I would argue the Dylan remaster... | |
| Apple Ipod K,Here in the UK the iPod costs pounds for dollars lucky enough for me my girlfriend got one in Hong Kong whilst overseas for 75% of the cost in the UK.In short you still get good value for the dollar in the US.However more important than that the... |
