May 1 2008 - New HiRez Poll > New #1 Disc!!!
May 01, 2008 - 1:27 AM - by JonUrban
I just compiled the latest HiRez poll results and have posted them on the page.

(NOTE: Since the link in the header image is not working at this time, you'll need to go there manually by clicking the above link.)

For the first time in a LONG TIME there is a new #1 disc, and it's only by a fraction of a fraction!

Look for Ringo on there as well.

While you are checking it out, notice the top 4 discs. Pretty interesting, eh?

Forum Upgrade
Apr 30, 2008 - 1:56 AM - by JonUrban
I just upgraded the forum to version 3.7 of the vBulletin software. It was a bit trickier than past upgrades, and there are a few issues I have to resolve. The biggest being the header.

Since that does not impact the actual forum, I reopened and will see what happens with my request for assistance from Jelsoft.

At any rate, if you guys notice anything strange, reply to this thread and I'll check it out.

Thanks

Special Offer on the QSI Record Cleaner!
Apr 09, 2008 - 1:10 AM - by JonUrban
QQ Member and Quadraphonic Engineer Lou Dorren posted in his CD-4 demodulator thread about an offer for the QSI record cleaner that he is making available to QQ members for an "at cost" price.

In case you missed that post, I'm duplicating it here. He only has 50 or so sets available, and there is no "kick-back" or other compensation to me or QQ for this deal. It's strictly a good deal for those interested.

Anyone who knows anything about Quadraphonics knows about Lou Dorren! Here's his post:

Hello Quad Fans,

I have arranged for a short run of the QSI record cleaner. This is a run of 50 kits. The kits will include a box of lab grade Kim Wipes, and 8 ounce bottle of QSI record cleaner and instruction sheets on how to clean CD-4 disks and how to restore badly abused conventional vinyl records, acetate dubs, and shellac 78s for archive recording purposes. The cost is $28.00 per kit which includes shipping. California residents add 8.25 % state tax. Delivery will be in 4 weeks.

To get into the queue, send the cost using a credit or debit card through PayPal to the following ID:

xytar@netscape.net

You do not need a PayPal account to do this. Just log on to www.paypal.com, click on the personal tab. From the menu bar click on send money selection and from

HiRez Poll Update
Mar 26, 2008 - 11:23 PM - by JonUrban
Oooops! I forgot to do this last month!

So, the latest results are now in. Rumor & Sigh makes the top bracket as a new entry, mostly because it wasn't in the polls in the past.

Here are the latest results:

HiRez Poll - February 2008 - Posted
Feb 02, 2008 - 12:08 AM - by JonUrban
I just compiled the latest HiRez poll results and have posted them on the page.

While there are still SACDs trickling out here and there, mostly classical and jazz and most from Asia, a quick glance at the HiRez poll shows that most of the highest rated titles are/were available on DVD-A, which I suppose would indicate that DVD-Audio was heavily skewed towards pop-rock.

I still can't quite understand why HiRez titles, both SACD and DVD-A, were deleted from the labels catalog in this day and age of the internet when they could have been retained as mail order direct sales items. Why turn down a stream of revenue for something that was already paid for and generated?

Go figure....................
