What will you be playing to celebrate?
I guess I'll throw my 2 cents in on this - what the hell, it's still a free country, right? The people who say this Iraq war was based on oil are probably right. Those who claim the CIA trained Osama and helped out Saddam are right too. I think th... 
Best multichannel SACDs?
Golden ears,I wanted to clarify that the titles I listed above are the titles I prefer to hear in multi-channel over stereo. I own several multi-channel SACD's but so far I have found the stereo more satisfying than the multi-channel with a few so... 
Best multichannel SACDs?
Bach: The Four Great Toccatas and Fugues performed by E. Power Biggs sounds fantastic. I personally love Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon as well. I have a few other multi-channel discs where "some" of the songs sound better in surround but I pr... 
Who has a separate DVDA and SACD player?
Thanks ALL,Kr4, Where will I find your March review? Here on the 'Gon? 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
Right on Nrchy! I will choose Freewill...and SACD:-) 
What are the best live acts?
Rush & Pink Floyd have been the two best bands I have seen live. 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
My wife doesn't know squat about audio and doesn't want to but even she thinks SACD sounds better than redbook! 
SACD my thoughts at this time.....................
Richard made a point that I very much agree with. The fact that the majority of SACD's now produced are hybrid discs, this makes the format backward compatable. I think many people who are buying hybrid discs and don't have an SACD player are prob... 
Blues /rock: music recommendations?
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs is a good one to get you started. 
Anyone modded a Sony 999es?
Thanks, TVAD. That review helps a lot. The more anectodel information I receive the more comfortable I become:-) about doing this. Lokie, I will keep you updated. I email Dan last night and he was VERY prompt with a reply. That makes me feel bette... 
Anyone modded a Sony 999es?
Thanks for the response, Jay. I have read several testimonials about Dan's work regarding the Sony 9000es. The unit I have not heard about is the 999es which I own. Since the 999es performs multi-channel SACD, I am curious about the levels/sound a... 
SACD/DVD-A and 2-channel recordings
It's been my experience that ALL SACD discs have a dedicated 2-channel SACD layer (not mix but layer). This is true even where an SACD may have an additional multi-channel SACD layer and/or CD (redbook) layer. 
SACD 2...for those who have not heard
It doesn't make a whole lot of sense for Sony to be pushing their DSD mastering/editing equipment to the audio industry (where they really make some $$$) only to pull the rug out from under them AND the consumers who have bought SACD players up to... 
Who R U?
Dave, Maybe I can help you get there by a "bio update". It has been going on 3 years since I first put in my admittedly "thin" bio. I'm now 35 and my kids are aged 5 and 4. I still have the same gig at an investment firm doing individual and small... 
Todays Raido Stations suck
First off I'm not THAT old - Hell, I'm "ONLY" 35! That said, the suggestion that getting on-line to go to different websites, download the music or go to a band's website is a little bit like the suggestion my old man had when I couldn't spell a w...
