| LP Cleaning Services @pkatsuleas Thank you so much! Exactly what I was looking for. I wonder how you found them as my Googling turned up nothing. I live in the Oak Park/River Forest area and this very close to me. I am off tomorrow and hopefully I can just dr... | |
| LP Cleaning Services I wouldn’t expect a used record store to be cleaning their inventory. These are shoestring mom and pop stores and probably carry a lot of unsold inventory. They could be wasting thousands of dollars cleaning inventory that they never sell. Alte... | |
| Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? Exactly why is the article cited by theOP poorly researched? He shows some data and then admits he is speculating as to the causes. His speculations sound reasonable and worthy of discussion. Why do new lps sell for $40? | |
| Suggestions for CSO Solti The Rite of Spring is a no holds barred recording. If you want to hear Solti’s CSO Brass in Full Cry, look no further. I also really like some of his last CSO recordings, possibly because I attended the Concerts, but the Shostakovich 15th Sympho... | |
| Low cost SACD player with remote, display and SACD over HDMI @kraftwerkturbo I never actually use my Sony as I use an Oppo 105 as a transport into my Bryston DAC. The Sony used to be in a HT system but I ultimately replaced it with an Oppo 203 and simultaneously dumped the cheap BluRay in that system. ... | |
| What are your top three favorite classical compositions? 1) The Baroque Period 2) The Classical Period 3) The Romantic Period | |
| Apple tv with Apple music hi res streaming issues? @horseman5048 your op is > 1 year old. What did you wind up doing? | |
| Where is the Multichannel Music at? I second @srinisr BIS and Pentatone are expert at Multichannel. They tend to use the surrounds for ambience and room reflection. If you want a label that plops you in the middle of the ensemble, try Tacet. | |
| Klemperer Mahler 7 mystery? @melm how did Bernstein II fare? And yes, @jasonbourne52 , Boulez Seventh is excellent | |
| Low cost SACD player with remote, display and SACD over HDMI My Sony 5400 plays SACD over HDMI into the HDMI input of my Bryston DAC 3. | |
| What HiFi and Atmos @erik_squires I don’t see why the bee got in your bonnet on this one. OK, you made your point, you don’t think Atmos will succeed with the general public. Most of the general public is happy with earbuds and sound bars. You win. As fo... | |
| Klemperer Mahler 7 mystery? I thought that I had read somewhere that OK considered M7 to be a “mistake” on the part of the Composer, but I was challanged to find the quote in another forum and I couldn’t locate it. At any rate, his recording of the Seventh didn’t do much fo... | |
| New take on CD vs Vinyl vs CD I digitized some lps a decade or so ago, and man it was a lot of work. The particular recordings used were available digitally and my results couldn’t touch the well done digital versions | |
| New CDP I am familiar with the Denon that was suggested upstream and it’s a fine player. I have the Bryston DC3 and I believe the Bryston CDP uses the same DAC. I would also try Hegel. It warms my heart that no one has told the OP he should get a str... | |
| Why didn't I sell my vinyl rig? I couldn’t wait for CDs to replace analog. My lps were destroyed in a flood t the dawn of the CD era and I was exclusively digital for about 20 years. Then I got into analog before concluding that my original preference for CDs (and now streamin... |
