SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
Ears-I apologise if I took your comments personally.I think the points you make against me have been made many times by yourself and a few others and I think I've answered your particular comments in my thread SACD-my thoughts at this time-it's al... 
SACD 2 channel vs Redbook 2 Channel
Ears I wonder how many of those European players are stand alone SACD/CD machines?I would think the majority are low end Sony DVD players and indeed the entry level universal machines.Sure this doesn't mean that the owners won't become SACD suppor... 
The Flaming Lips are Go Manifesto
Zaikesman yeah I'm still here but I am busy sewing a complicated Rush logo on the back of my denim jacket.The Lips played the UK a lot this year and as such they were on TV a lot,last time I saw them they made King Crimson look like the Sex Pistol... 
Ageless Music?
Dylan not a great songwriter...........I'm going to lie down............I think it's impossible to tell actually.It depends whether there are Rock historians,the level they look into it and it's influence on the music of the day.You can be sure if... 
Can you help with this problem?
Guys thanks for the replies,if you read my original post you'll see the set up is not mine.I posted the exact wording my friend stated-I'll direct him here and let him add more info or I'll post his reaction/findings.Thanks again. 
Hi rez: Led Zep and the Beatles
The last Zep release How The West Was Won is out on DVDA which doesn't bode well for any SACD releases.....

Little Milton that link is in very poor taste and will offend a lot of people.I think you should apologise before you get slaughtered for an incorrect and tasteless so-called joke. 
What music have you been buying? Old or new?
Nrchy-I have offered to provide this very service for Audiogon-a seperate area for reviews and music release and general news.I am still waiting to hear back from them. 
What music have you been buying? Old or new?
Ladavid-the Love Is Hell Part 1 ep was released here in the UK the same day as Rock and Roll-about two/three weeks ago.The UK version has 2 bonus tracks which imho only get in the way of the 8 original tracks.It hasn't been reviewed in any mags I ... 
Looking for new genres...
Dmitrydr-I would doubt you could even exhaust the genres you like.Try reading related music magazines on the genres you like,you are bound to find new artists both similar and different to ones you like.Try www.allmusic.com this is a great website... 
What music have you been buying? Old or new?
I buy a lot of both.This has been a great year for remasters/re-releases-I will nearer the end of the year post lists covering both.On the Remaster front-we've had the 17 Dylan remasters (already covered in detail by me on a seperate post),Echo&am...

Little Milton I don't think yout inclusion of myself back into this argument is merited and it reads like a whole lot of quotes I never made. 
Redbook layer on SACD - good enough?
It's been my experience with hybrids that the mixes are identical on the different layers-it's just the actual replay formats that are different.As such any difference is down to the superiority or otherwise of the format.I've found the Redbook re... 
Redbook layer on SACD - good enough?
KR4-I have the new Miles Davis box set The Complete Jack Johnson-it was mastered using the DSD process but it is NOT a SACD nor hybrid.So if the information on this is correct then the DSD process can be used to make CD's as well as SACD's.
