8K for a one-time listen?


As someone who can appreciate the potential value of $20K speaker wires in an appropriate system, this is over the top, even for me.  Devialet is issuing recordings on actual lacquer for $7900, but the kicker is - they can only be listened to ONCE.  And the lacquer wears away.  All I can say is - Actually, I have nothing to say.  
Here it is in case you wish to indulge.

For 8k you could get a really nice real to real and some master tapes and blow that record away

Anytime I think I've heard or seen it all, things like this crop up. *L*

glennewdick got it sussed, though.  Hook up a pro level R2R AND a digital recorder.  Make absolutely sure it's all 'go to go'.  Pray there's no power failure mid-session; if any qualms, provide your own power source.

Bootleg it. *evil grin*

And sue the %#@$ off whomever markets the same session you've moved heaven and earth when you see the same at K-Mart for $5.....*LOL*

Yeah, you'll get counter-sued, but if you've got those sort of bucks to play about with you'll have fun in court making a fuss and become some sort of audiophile Robin Hood....;)

I'll make some popcorn and watch the show....*G*
