Suffice it to say: If the majors would stop 'dicking' us around with substandard DVD~Vs in Lossy codecs and start opening up their vaults and release everything in bona fide hi res, I would definitely PREFER those releases over HDDT's.....any day!
As if the music conglomerates aren't guilty themselves out of bilking their artists out of royalty payments over the years. Probably untold BILLIONS!
Let your conscience be your guide if contemplating a future purchase from HDDT.
BTW, sully....I don't notice any aberrations from utilizing tubed equipment. No hum or distortion as far as I can tell. But I have to admit....their mega thousand modern Open Reel Decks are certainly better than anything one could purchase in the 70's and 80's for DOSMESTIC use. And those Dolby b encoded QUAD Open Reels on HDDT BD~As really sound quite magnificent. Of course, I would prefer them replicated via Dutton Vocalion's even more magnificent current SACD 4.0 program.
