Oh, what a coincidence. My wife was made in Japan too, but I don't keep her in a cabinet. My wife was made in Japan too! |

Yokota babe? ;D (oh, wait a minute, when I said "made" in Japan, I meant "born" in Japan. Maybe you had something else in mind -- "made" ?  ) |

SACD a bit pricy... www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B00022LI52/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&qid=1294146447&sr=1-1&condition=usedReview here: www.sa-cd.net/showreviews/2034BTW, there's a multichanel DVD-Audio version also. Only €19 new. As good as the SACD? I read a German listener comment and he said it was "only" 24/48 as in standard DVD, not 24/96 as in proper DVD-Audio... He also wrote that the multichannel was real good. I would order it, but it's not in stock. I see my local library has the CD,I will get that first. Thanks for the tip, Bob! I have a few CD's from Sting, but I find only "If On A Winter's Night..." truly outstanding and entertaining. He's a real professional though. Edit: Did some more research on Sting and "formats". He brought us a few SACD in the past, but to prove that SACD is not going anywhere interesting, he did three formats for "If On A Winter's Night" (2009). CD, DVD (video) and... LP. No SACD. Erwin, just get the CD. I got both versions, and the CD is very good. Good stuff for your sub.  * And the price for the SACD (about $500 CAN), forget it!  Well, I have the Sting CD. Using stereo with sub (B&W CM7, speaker terminals connected via Speakon to REL SW) I get a lot of rattle from where the sub resides, when I play loud. Used the Oppo 83 SE-NE analogue outputs to AVR. After ripping to AIFF, I played it with the mini-DAC2-XPA1-Jamo setup. No rattles, just clean and powerfull boomless bass! I still prefer "If On A Winter's Night..." as an album though. You know which other bass player makes cool albums? Jah Wobble! I especially love his "Passage To Hades" album. Completely instrumental with an Oriental Ali Baba feel to it. I believe Dub is the correct term. A trip! The albums starts with horns and a slow bass joins addictively. Lady Gaga fanboys need not apply. www.discogs.com/Jah-Wobble--Evan-Parker-Passage-To-Hades/release/459188 |

Hey thanks Erwin for the tip!   __________________________________ * The "Sting" CD I was talking about (the first tune: 37 seconds) have my speakers rattling at loud volume (not my mains, another pair with three 6.5" drivers in each)! Only those first few seconds, so there must be some low content in there and with high output! __________________________________ George, did you knew about this program from HOLM Acoustics? @ www.holmacoustics.com/holmimpulse.php |
