Mark Levinson: Red Rose Music-anyone heard this?


In the most recent edition of the "musicdirect" catolog there is a write-up and recommendation for Mark Levinson's Hybrid SACD, Red Rose Music (which, btw, is the name of his newest hi-end equipment company). I won't go into all of the marketing hype, but they make it sound like an excellent reference recording. Before I plop down my $20 I was wandering if anyone has heard this and your opinion (s). Thanks!

I have this SACD. A very good recording both SACD and Redbook. It has a wide assortment of music or spoken words. If it were a reference recording, it would be perfect because of its variety. I state that it is a very good recording though since purchasing it, Recbecca Pidgeon's "The Raven" and Diana Krall's "When I Look into Your Eyes" are both excellent and sonically better. The Levinson CD is not something that you can listen to all the way through, at least I can't. I certainly don't regret the purchase and would recommend it to others in this crazy hobby.
