| Great films where music is a central theme. Walls from the movie "She's the One" | |
| HDtrack not necessarily better? I have found HDtracks to be consistently on par with the best that is out there. In some cases you are simply getting the same master that was sold on two channel DVD Audio or two channel SACD but I have not yet found anything to complain about. I... | |

The quality is on par with early stones stuff done by Bob.Of course the drums are recorded as drums... | |
| Best non-USB Dac for $3k, computer as source? An async DAC like Benchmark DAC1 is a solid choice with a PC (likely to be jittery on the digital out). DAC1 would perhaps be at the low end of your price range but you might be able to audition one at no cost. | |
