Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[The56Kid]

Not to worry, probably 90% of what we listen to is quad or 5.1

Agreed. I’m fine with my 5.1 system. I’m not about to upgrade every time a new codex that requires a new pre/pro, AVR, TV or additional speakers comes to light. I’m sure they sound great, but I’m more than happy and satisfied with my relatively inexpensive but kickin’ 5.1 setup!

Back on topic: listening to CTA from the Quadio Box I just received for Xmas. WOW is pretty much all I can say! It’s going to take me some time to get through all 9 Blu-rays, this is pure ear candy so far!

Good question. I don't know. I have never heard of a more limited capacity but with multiple channels of data it sounds reasonable. Maybe one of the DTS experts here can answer this.

Incidently this has been the most expensive holiday season for me regarding buying music with all the released box sets and new surround. I need a second job to support this hobby.........or sell more blood

What BLOOD type are you and do you accept PayPal and/or American Transylvania Express?

Quite an outstanding two-fer, so far!

Early AM I played Laura Nyro's astounding 4.0 SACD [Audio Fidelity] of Eli and the Thirteenth Confession at a moderate level [recommended] and it's an absolutely stunning experience. The surrounds are exemplary and her voice is that of an angel [with a somewhat dark side]. How she caresses those tunes is exemplary.

Again, thank you Audio Fidelity for releasing this brilliant chestnut in 4.0 surround.

Whether you like her or not, she did influence a ton of future singer/songwriters including Sir Elton John and Elvis Costello.
