Best sonics/music on CD

I have found that on my *lower* end system that some cd's have their "
diamonds" or so to speak whereas most of the disc is sonically lacking
for some reason in my opinion. I would assume that some of this is a
limitation of my system but never the less...the one artist that for me stands
out as having the most consistent sonic quality for the CD's & SACD's I have
would say is Beck IMO.

Interestingly enough...I was turned on to a band called Air by a Seattle Stereo
shop and am now listening to '10000Hz Legend'...turns out that Beck hooked
up with them on this album for a couple tracks.

So what's the deal with him being a Scientologist anyways?

Doug McLeod (XRCD) Come to Find
Lightning Hopkins (XRCD) Goin' Away
Madeleine Peyroux's new one: Half the Perfect World. Duet with KD Lang is worth the admission...

Tvad,

Now how did you know I would ravitate towords music such as Atom Bomb. Yikes! you must be prophetic of some sort. :>) I did listen to all the cuts on line and liked it. I will track it down and buy it. BTW, I am enjoying the Simmens CCa Gray Plates in my dac you sold me as it really takes the sonics to a larger sound stage. Thanks.

The problem with Gospel/Christian music is sound quality. My system tears it up and spits it out. Phil Keaggy is one of the few that makes the grade for me.

some of my favorites are listed - here's one I just picked up:

Erik Truffaz - "Bending New Corners"

.

These recent acquisitions have floored me:

1) Mark Knopfler "Sailing To Philadelphia"
2) Jeff Wayne's "War of the Worlds"
3) Pat Metheny "Imaginary Day"

The sonics on these are *astounding*, all of them are DTS encoded. The music is sublime...
