| ebay vs audiogon I too have used both services. I have been a buyer on Audiogon and both buyer/seller on eBay (under the same handle - "treyhoss"). I decided to sell on EBay based on the fact I would see similar equipment bring more money on Ebay than Agon.As far ... | |

| CD pcm to ................SACD dsd "Wish List" Ben, It's not on the Moody Blues web after all but here is the interview. It's a good interview.http://www.classicrockrevisited.com/Interviews04/justin%20hayward.htm | |
| CD pcm to ................SACD dsd "Wish List" Ben,I recently went to the Moody Blues website but did not glean such information. There is an interview with Justin Heyward who says there has been some talk about it and would love to do the project. Unfortunately, I don't think it has begun or ... | |
| CD pcm to ................SACD dsd "Wish List" Quadruple the Floyd suggestion. Moody Blues catalog for sure and the Beatles!RushCrosby Stills & NashEnyaRobin TrowerTo name just a few off the top of my head. | |
| SACD's to stay away from I found the Norah Jones about the same as the CD. That said, it still sounds pretty good. I just remembered another one I have that's no better than the CD. Santana - Abraxus | |
| I'm totally confused about Hi Rez formats I can't speak directly about DVD-A but I *think* it is designed to be played in multi-channel. There may be a stereo only option but I'm not sure if all DVDA's have a stereo layer. SACD, on the other hand, has a stereo layer (always) with many dis... | |
| Audiogon "SACD's TO DIE FOR" list Just go the Carpenters GH 1969-1981. What a great job they did! | |
| Elton John SACD releases I recently bought Madman Across the Water and think it sounds great. Better IMO than GBYBR. I prefer both of these recording in stereo as opposed to multi-channel. Elton's vocals are still crystal clear and the depth across the front is retained w... | |
| Mobile Fidelity VS Re-mastered It depends on the CD. For the most part I find MFSL to be superior still to the remasters. A lot depends on exactly when the remasters were remastered. I would say the MFSL's are better than anything remastered prior to 2000 or so except for a cou... | |
| Audiogon "SACD's TO DIE FOR" list The ones that REALLY standout from the 25 I have (and are better than the redbook) are:Pink Floyd - DSOMThe Who - TommyElton John - Madman Across the WaterI think these are the best of the best I have in this format. | |
| Where will audio be in 10 years? I think digital amps will certainly have matured to the point where they could compete with some of the very best today - offering incredible dynamics and (hopefully) not sound thin or lifeless sound during low listening volumes.It seems if Blu-ra... | |

| Deep Purple Remasters: Machine head/Live in Japan I owned Machine Head on Rhino, the one Bozzy has, remixed by Glover with the bonus "quadraphonic" disc (even though it's redbook). I own the SACD version as well. I like both but would probably give the slight edge to the Rhino release in sound qu... |
