@uberwaltz - No there are. But many are not ones I would purchase as a normal recording, let alone shell out, as you said, 100.00+ USD. :D
Dbx encoded discs
Is anyone familiar with dbx encoded discs? I have a single recording (Pictures at An Exhibition/Nigh on Bald Mountain), but there were other recordings made. I have not found a catalog though.

jcipale , Thanks for the info. The prices are more than I paid, but probably not worth the hassle of selling them. I also find myself with many, many Cassette and RTR tapes, all dbx encoded. Mostly Jazz and Classical. After all these years I am not sure the tapes are playable. Seems like such a waste. Back in the day I had all the dbx electronics, for LP and tape, Click and pop machines (Burwen), equalizers, RTR, Cassette, fm Tuner and turntables. I thought, the more the better. Now I have receivers and CD players. Cheers |
@rok2id If you find you are interested, I could have my arm twisted to buy them. :D |
Interestingly I ran into the few DBX records I have left. Back in the day I would buy one and copy it to a Teac A-3340S at 15ips. It would make a perfect copy. I don't remember the model number of the DBX "compander" as they were known. But it had both record and tape functions (record/play), don't know why they were separate functions. I hated Dolby at the time it always sounded like it was "pumping" to me, searching for the proper level. Any one else have that experience? |
