Anyone heard Dead Hi-Rez downloads from HDtracks? Good writeup of this release by Jon Iverson on AudioStream. | |
It was 20 years ago today. . What was your system? I would love to hear some of these old systems today. I imagine mine would be very disappointing, but somehow the music's never sounded as good to me as it did back then. Try as I might, I can't seem to upgrade my age. | |
Anyone heard Dead Hi-Rez downloads from HDtracks?

Best New Loudspeakers under $5,000. Focal Aria 900 In that ~$5K range, you'd also want to hear the Revel Performa3 models and the KEF R series. Lots of good choices out there. | |

Saying USB wasn't designed for audio strikes me as like saying it wasn't designed to transfer d... | |
