French Kiss is one of my favorite all time albums...this album screams for a surround version...calling Holland and skherbeck...help...help
Aw Pup...you never heard French Kiss?...I'm playing a youtube version now and I can see myself at the top of the key...whew...powerful stuff that music....
Just received this Steve Hoffman mastered disc
At the suggestion of the pupster….and it's a fun disc...well worth a purchase...when you see the picture below...are you surprised to see what Donald Fagen looked like in 1991...he's the first photo on the top left hand side..and that instrument he has is called a melodica...it is similar to a harmonica...then Michael McDonald and Boz Scaggs....a cool feature of this CD is the "notes
" written by Fagen about some of the songs..

Talking of fun discs, this one liberated from the radio vaults of New Zealand:
Wow, Clint...cool!
Impressive DRs and from 2010 no less! Is that HDCD numbers or does it even matter? My receiver supports HDCD, but the new Oppo 205 does not, but my old Denon player does.
Are you still set up to compare the two; sounds like an opportunitah?
Nope...the 103D is dormant at the moment...not hooked up to the system....
I've got to admit, I've forgotten what the whole HDCD thing is about anyway (think I've only got a few of them and not sure I could hear any improvement
.)
Yeah, mine are separated into two different systems and it would be a real PITA to get it together. Any opinions on HDCD Clint and anybody else have experience with HDCDs?

Supposedly, HDCD gives you 20 bit resolution.....but in my experience and on my main system, my Meridian 808 and Meridian Sooloos which do NOT have HDCD sound superior to the OPPO utilizing HDCD. That's all I can go by, JP.
I've had other HDCD titles and I've never noticed any difference...but to be fair I never played them with the intention of a comparison....since the 203 doesn't process HDCD and this disc sounds excellent without the "benefit" of this technology...if it did boost the DR it would be improbable that I could notice a few digits of improvement...the theory behind the technology is that it does raise the DR...but I've never noticed it...
