Rok, as usual, you're right, but at the same time your wrong. Although she's Lapland, the music is still Native American, and she identifies with Native Americans because she's one of the indigenous people of Norway, and Native Americans are the i...

Rok, sometime I venture into a different kind of spiritual world that's one with the music, it's called "Native American", I can hear the call of the wild through the music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fI83WGsuyo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

Frogman, I got my order in for Johnny Griffin. Your opinion of Lorez is an indication of just how "subjective" female vocalists are. While I'm not impressed by Carmen Lundy, she seems interesting as a person, and I'm investigating her art and biog...

Raul, a funny thing just happened; although you stated you were ignorant on this whole digital subject, you've summed up everything I've discovered after making comparisons for all my waking hours, for the last 10 days; digital is better than reco...

Acman3, if I had been there, I would have been overwhelmed as well. I've got several discs of Luc Ponty when he was in that bag, after this, I'll have to get that.Enjoy the music.

Rok, I'm using HD Downloads to replace damaged LP's, but since you don't have LP's, forget about it.Lorez Alexandria is a vocalist I don't believe we've covered, and I like her a lot. She has all the attributes of old school vocalists with no shor... 
HD Down Load compared to Analog.
Raul, I can't find any difference in reference to your specific question. HD Downloads are direct from master tapes, which could explain the high quality, but technically I don't see any difference between the two since both are 24/192.

As everyone knows, there is no more bias on any forum than on the "analog" forum, which is why I posted digital here. Even with all the bias, those who tried HD Downloads have given them a positive response. Cartridges have personalities which tra...

One can never have too much Gene Ammons, I can listen to his boss tenor all day long. Here are a few of my favorites by "jug". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XsuljkopC0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLKVsMuYoZA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwG...

Rok, I assume you're using the USB input on your Marantz SA8004?

Tonywinc, unlike analog, a cheap USB cable works just fine. A Music Streamer Dac works just fine. You don't have to be rich in order to get into digital, although there is a lot to learn. Fortunately, I know a "geek". This old dog can't, or wont l...

Rok, my grandmother liked "Chopin", I heard her say it when I was very young. It was ages before I discovered "Chopin" and "Sho pan" were the same person. I liked him until he got a little too busy for me.I saw Aretha live in Detroit, you can't go...

Rok, forget I ever mentioned HD Downloads. I had a problem that caused me to tell those people they were selling "snake oil", when the problem was in my computer and was not identified till after I called my "geek".

Peterayer, your situation is identical to mine. I'm going through my collection and replacing old (scratched) records with HD Downloads. Your use of records and mine might even be the same, this is not a case of this or that, but both.Enjoy the mu...
