Best Source For Quality Jazz CDs?

Since I will be assembling a serious audio system in the near future, it's time to abandon the iTunes downloads & start rebuilding my CD collection. Is there a particularly good source for high-quality jazz & other CDs? In the past I have purchased CDs from BMG admittedly because they were relatively inexpensive. But now I am primarily concerned with quality. Thank you.

Try the Jazz Heritage Society. BTW, there's nothing wrong with the quality of BMG's CD's, Selection yes.

Acoustic Sounds stock a good range, especially XRCD's.
IMO, their Jazz on 45 reissues have been superb and they are starting to release the Blue Note back catalogue on 45 vinyl next year but then you are only interested in c.d.'s ?

The Jazz Record Mart in Chicago has the largest catalog of Jazz and Blues cds/records in the world. Give them a call for their store catalog.
