I'll suggest a DVD that I think has one of the best pictures I have ever seen on a DVD Debbie does Dallas. Sorry just kidding but seriously the DVD that has suprised me with a great picture is Meet Joe Black, have any of you seen it? agree/disagree? As far as music goes one song that always makes me realize why I have the investment in audio equipment is the song Trial by Fire by Chuck Loeb, energy, passion, solitude, and an over all feeling of belonging all from a song what more can one ask for.

I know there have been a lot of threads discussing the most amazingly 3-D holographic imaging, wall shaking, trouser flapping bass, torturous demos, magical midrange etc., but as an audiophile, I often try to remind myself that a good recording of a GREAT performance should, IMHO, be held in higher esteem than a great recording of a merely GOOD performance. With that in mind, what CDs, DVDs etc do you think are well produced or well recorded -- not necessarily state of the art -- but of sufficiently high quality and where the performance REALLY MOVES YOU or REALLY MAKES YOU VERY HAPPY to play on your system? (To get you started, Mannheim Steamroller, the Sheffield Drum Record and the Video Essentials DVD should not be on the list.) Obviously, if you know of music or a movie that is technically AND creatively superb, so much the better. I am hoping this list will provide excellent suggestions for all.
