Listening to now (In Surround!) - Volume 1

Roger Waters - The Wall live in Berlin (1990) DTS 5.1 from the Special Edition DVD-V.

I saw The Wall concert here last year. Nice to see rumours of a blu-ray release pending (HD from the recent tours).

Anyway, the 1990 Audio quality is very good with some quite discrete activity at times. Video quality is not so good. It's a 16:9 blow-up from original 4:3 video. Recommended concert with guest including: Van Morrison, Cindy Lauper, Bryan Adams, Joni Mitchell, The Scorpions, Paul Carrick, The Band and Thomas Dolby!

350,000 attended the sell-out concert, interesting reading here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wall_–_Live_in_Berlin

Sara K - Made in the Shade SACD, what a beauty of an album!

Clapton- Back home

I really like the music , maybe it's the mood I'm in right now and the gray/rainy day
AND
it's SUCH a pity it's only DD, you can tell especially with delicate sounds..heavy metal wouldn't suffer that much from DD, but it's a crime that this great disc was released on DULLBEE

..digging the 3 picks, too bad I don't use those kind, I like the triangular ones -not the ones with sharp corners-and Gibson stopped making them years ago...nice to see he uses heavy gauge...

Rush- Snakes and Arrows DVD-V

I still don't know what the stink is regarding this..it is a quite good Surround mix...

Clapton DIGS picks. Note: there is no R in that word. Here's a few of the dozens of EC picks:

The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic: Mom's giving the baby a bath so I can listen to that "weird" King Crimson stuff. Funny, the kid doesn't seem to mind it.

Goo goo ga ga! I hope you are enjoying your selection while taking a .

Finally for the first time:



I will vote not today, but from first listen I find it better than CTTE.
I expected a better result, because also the stereo versions of TYA always sounded better to me than CTTE although I prefer the songs from CTTE.

I'm very happy

Hey Kap, mine copy (dualdisc with the picks) is DVD-A with 48/24 MLP - I wonder why yours should be DD only?

Ian Anderson - Homo Erraticus

Beyonce, the Visual album on blu-ray. Tried not to watch, but I'm only human...

Good Charlotte; Chronicles of life and death DD(Dualdisc). GREAT 5.1 mixes, OK music. Perry good drumming and great mixing of the drums, far better than what you hear on the likes of AC/DC albums(the most boring drumming ever). I recommend checking this out.

David Bowie Space Oddity stereo 8-track cart, Bradford quad deck, into Sansui 6001, in surround synth mode, 4 speakers

Technics 3-ways with 15" woofers on front
Marantz 2-ways with 8" woofers on rear switched to "high" response on back

all tone controls centered on "0", loudness "off", tape 1 input, volume only on "2"

freaking awesome !!

the bass response is less in surround, but the detail is stunning. great soundstage

Mark Knopfler - Sailing to Philadelphia DVD-A. Great sounding album, really enjoyed the guitars in surround and the sound stage is amazing!

Foreigner - Cat Stevens SQ


Buddha and the Chocolate Box - Cat Stevens SQ

Deep Purple - Machine Head UK SACD with the original quadraphonic mix from 1972!

Wow - Foreigner Suite is one of my favorite albums. Didn't realize this was in Quad!
