..lol .If I were still in my previous crib or moved to 8Â ceilings and walls I would still be listening to the Caravelles. Best monitor I have heard first hand. Now, 12 foot ceilings and an open floor plan require a speaker to move more air. A lot more air. IÂm going to check out the cds. You are right on the xrcds, though. A crying shame there are so few. ThatÂs why they are worth so much, I suppose. Sweetest thing on a cd.
What are the differences between XRCDs?
I own about 30 of these babies. All in very heavy beautiful card board jewel cases. I see so many xrcds in plastic jewel cases: Japan, China, Hong Kong? I don't understand. Some of my xrcds are selling for $150 and some are selling as low as $20. Most of them, however, are all in the $100 range plus or minus $30. What gives? thanks in advance

SHM uses the original master, only the material used is different/better. So my Eagles Hell Freezes Over US press < SHM version K2/XRCD involve remastering so IMHO the remastering accounts for why K2/XRCDs sounds better than the standard master (used in regular press or SHM). But there are now SHM XRCDs that have the best of both worlds. ps there is a new K2 Direct Cut that is even more impressive than K2/XR but limited to Asian titles for the HK market. |
