Pink Floyd's Pulse DVD finally
FWIW: I have the laserdisc version of this concert and it had always been top-box quality. I was amazed to discover when I bought the DVD that they had re-edited a large % of the concert. In other words, they used different camera angles and re-ed... 
Looking for information about Dahlquist CA-1W1
You may have already made the purchase but check out the CA-C1 which is made to go with these speakers. I have the CA-C1 for my center channel which is matched for my CA2-W2. Click the link for my "system" to see a picture of it. 
Conservative Politics & Rock Music
Well said, Zaikesman! While I would consider myslef more conservative than liberal, the bottom line is that music appeals to everyone. In addition, most groups on the list probably donate their time, money and efforts to Democratic causes and are ... 
Anyone heard the new Moody Blues SACDs yet?
I got a chance to listen to all of the SACDs. I agree with Theo in that they all do seem to be a little "forward" in the stage - as if the levels were all "amped-up". That said, it is extremely clear and captivating. I am a little less enthusiasti... 
Anyone heard the new Moody Blues SACDs yet?
The Moody Blues' music pretty much got me into audio. There is so much music to hear - not "just songs" - if that makes sense. I got home late last night and they were on my doorstep. I can't wait to get home tonight, wait for everyone to go to sl... 
Anyone heard the new Moody Blues SACDs yet?
Thanks Lazarus,I see now - re-reading the posts above - that it is only the one "In Search of..." that's not in 5.1. Still, I agree Legend of a Mind would have been great in 5.1 as would "The best way to travel":-)I'm hoping they arrive soon. I wa... 
Anyone heard the new Moody Blues SACDs yet?
It is dissapointing to hear they aren't in 5.1 as the articles I had read over the last several years (it seems) indicate. In fact here is the latest press release:http://www.superaudio-cd.com/news/newsitem.php?id=120I guess they are referring to ... 
New David Gilmour record:any feedback?
While I enjoy certain aspects of this new album (and I'm a big Floyd fan BTW - pre AND post Waters) it is a little too mellow for me. It's like a qualude with a shot of brandy. Perhaps some of you have heard this record multiple times because you ... 
Moody Blues on SACD Finally
Yes, I was also initially disappointed that they didn't release all of the "classic 7" but I'll take what I can get. Hopefully, if sales are good, they will release the rest! 
MOODY BLUES CD'S
I third the MoFi's - you can't go wrong. These are the BEST versions on CD and I have compared them all including the 2 released in DTS. 
Another sign SACD is dying
Interesting article I saw today:Media, tech companies team up on high-definition TVBy Robert MacMillanNEW YORK (Reuters) - Several media and electronics companies on Wednesday said they are developing technology guidelines that could make it easie... 
Another sign SACD is dying
JD,Then going 10 years out from a fully realized, all-in-one box solution, people will want to get back to the more "organic" quality of music and equipment that they "remembered as a kid back in '06". It will come full circle LOL :-) 
HT pre-amp/proccessor advise.
I guess the only further information I could give concerning the Pre-2 DSP would be to again point out that the pre-amp portion is top notch. Forget the processing for a moment. It does audio VERY well! The sound is natural and very detailed - it ... 
Another sign SACD is dying
Mike,I am forced to agree with you. My SACD list is mostly comprised of the genre that includes Pink Floyd, Elton John, Sheryl Crow, Allman Brothers, The Who, etc. I am eargerly awaiting to hear RUSH on SACD and - hopefully - the long rumored Mood... 
HT pre-amp/proccessor advise.
I second the Audio Refinement - either the pre-5 or the Pre-2 DSP which I own. Both are excellent preamplifiers for 2 channel and 6 channel (SACD/DVDA) - the 6-channel inputs are dead-quiet! The pre-5 is all analogue while the Pre-2 DSP processes ...
