| Pat Metheny Group Fans....Speaking of Now on DVD I've seen the Pat Metheny Group in concert twice. I'm a real fan. Has anyone checked out the Japanese 24K releases? All the ECMs were reissued. I bought 5 before they went OOP. Should have bought them all. | |
| HDCDs from China? I have purchased some of these Chinese gold HDCDs. I felt the soung quality to be rough at best. The highs are piercing. I don't know if they are legit or not. I see gold 3 CD sets going for $9.95 on eBay. Just doesn't seem right does it? They def... | |
| XRCD, can I play it on regular CD player? Yes! And you'll be glad you did!rja | |
| Enlighten me please There's great sounding CDs out there but it can be a crap shoot finding them. Most of the JVC xrcd stuff sounds great, especially the few newer xrcd24 titles. Many Japanese manufactured CDs sound good but again not always. Recently purchased a Jap... | |
| Anyone heard the new Led Zep jJapanese CDs? My experience with Japanese made CDs has been positive. The most noticable improvement is in the high end. For some reason the grating edgy high end has been eliminated on a lot of Japanese CDs. There's probably bad sounding Japanese CDs out there... | |
| Your ONE all time favorite love song? Everly Bros./Let It Be Me. Guess it was a French song first but never heard it in French. | |
| XRCDs. Which ones would you recommend me? This one is going to be tough to find but the sound is spectacular: Hell Freezes Over by the Eagles. It was only available for a short time. I'm not a huge Eagles fan but the sound quality of this XRCD is impressive. | |
| Medieval-style music Just about anything by Jordi Savall is worth listening to, both instrumental and vocal. The recording quality is usually very good as well. | |
| Jazz Recommendations The best place I've found to hear a wide variety of old and new jazz is Mainstream Jazz with Bob Parlocha. You can access it on jazz88fm.com. This is a public radio station in Minneapolis that plays mostly jazz. | |
| Wadia upgrade - Levinson or Naim? Send your 830 to Great Northern Sound for reference mod package. You're not going to believe the sound improvement! | |
| Audio Alchemy DTi Pro 32 - Any Good? I've owned all this stuff. The Pro Drive is a very good unit and can probably be used successfully with any DAC. The DTI Pro 32 and DDE v.3 are a pain, basically junk. They sound pretty good WHEN they are working and connected with IsqS. But I wou... | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IV Speaker I've owned the SCIV and now own a pair of SCIVAs. IMO: The IVAs are dramatically better in every respect. I feel the overall integration of the drivers and subsequent coherence is the most marked improvement of the IVA over the IV. This is probabl... |
