| Review: Marantz Marantz DV-8400 & SA-14 vs. others CD Player Socrates, this is an invaluable piece of work. Thank you so much! If you don't mind, I (for one) would *love* to see your review of the Denon 5900. It's a machine that I'm strongly considering (ready to make the move to multichannel and away from ... | |
| Diana Krall - ENGAGED How could Elvis sink to such a level? How could he marry a sub-human like this? I used to respect the man...now, I guess I'll somehow have to separate his work from his actions. | |
| Bowie 24 bit remasters.... Don't forget...almost all of Bowie's works will soon be available on SACD. Ziggy Stardust, Let's Dance, and Scary Monsters are all hybrids. | |
| DVD/CD/SACD player advice needed But the 963 has suffered from an obscene number of reliability problems, especially as reported on www. audioasylum.com (see Hi-Rez Highway). | |
| Can I nominate Sean please ? Sean, I just hope that somehow, we've managed to give you as much as you've given us. Indeed, my growth as an audiophile can be directly traced to some of the most prolific posters on this site, and that list would *definitely* include you. | |
| Sony DVPS9000ES & Hybrid SACDs There aren't different versions of the player, it's just that some people have reported difficulties with their particular model of the 9000 ES having this problem. Fortunately, mine has never had this problem. | |
| Good Universal Player with Balanced Outs Don't forget the Denon 5900, which will be out very soon. For more details, do a search on the "Hi Rez Highway" at www.audioasylum.com | |
| Did you know that Audiogon... Maybe I should stop referring to videophiles as "vidiots," since many VGoNers may also be AGoNers... | |
| HELP with speaker selection. If you like your current Polks, how about the (virtually) full range Polk LSi 25? They've gotten great reviews, and I greatly enjoy having them in my present system. Plus, there are dealers everywhere, so I'm sure you can hear them for yourself wi... | |
| Good old 2ch versus multi-ch, what to do? I have a 2-channel SACD system (please click on my "system" link for more details). I purchased speakers that are (a) meant for SACD (slightly higher frequency response...if my hearing even warrants it), and (b) are meant to be expanded into a 5-c... | |
| Rachmaninov Piano Conerto 2 - Recommended LP? Racmaninov's Piano Concerto #2 is the most achingly beautiful piece of music ever created in the world. bar none.Sorry I can't help with LP recommendations...I only have it CD and SACD. | |
| Just a kind word of thanks I too have been assisted in similar ways. Ultimately, I owe a debt of gratitude not only to the 'Goners I've dealt with in the past but also, undoubtedly, to those I'll work with in the future. | |
| Is this a male hobby or are there females bitten Now we're having an evolution vs. creationism debate? I've seen threads get off track before, but geez! | |
| Live at Carnegie Hall Don't forget "Judy at Carnegie Hall," which many critics consider to be Miss Garland's premier work. I own the Steve Hoffman remastered Gold CD version, and the sound quality is as good as you could reasonably expect for a recording of its vintage. | |
| Does your system reflect your personality? My system is diverse, detailed, a little too hungry for attention, and not as refined or capable as it should be.If you knew me, you'd draw your own conclusions about this system's owner...;-) |
