So if I don't have it yet, and I have a Q8 player, should i snag the best one I can find, condition wise? Or should I hold out for the UK tape to appear on ebay?
Rob,
The last one (RM LP) on eBay went for over $1000!!!
The ULTIMATE version of this album is the Japanese QS/RM version, which blows away the SQ version and even the SACD!
but does it blow away the dvda?
ICK! No way! The Japanese RM LP of DSOTM is the absolute worst quad version of this title, if you ask me. It decodes like crap compared to the SQ LP. I've compared a mint copy of the original U.K. SQ LP through a Tate II decoder to a mint copy of the Japanese RM LP through a Sansui QSD-1 and there is no comparison. The RM LP's quad soundfield is muddy, incoherent, unstable and just plain bad.The ULTIMATE version of this album is the Japanese QS/RM version, which blows away the SQ version and even the SACD!
but does it blow away the dvda?
But it is better than the SACD, and the surround separation is superior to the SQ.
