    Pink Floyd Remasters (including high-res Blu-ray Audio AND WYWH on SACD) - FINALLY!

    Just placed an order with ED last week. Wish I'd known they'd get their hands on it this quickly. Would have added WYWH to the order. It usually takes awhile for AP titles to filter their way down to the other suppliers

    Pink Floyd Remasters (including high-res Blu-ray Audio AND WYWH on SACD) - FINALLY!

    When I spoke with Acoustic Sounds yesterday they confirmed the press run was 10,000. Though the guy I spoke to wasn't sure, he acknowledged it doesn't necessarily mean it's limited to that number. There could be a second press run if necessary. I would think Analogue Productions would press...

    What Hirez Discs Have You Purchased Recently?

    Mike, must admit...haven't listened to it. I have many SACDs sent to my niece in Seattle (to ensure free shipping within the US). This one has arrived there but is not in my hands just yet. She'll bring it up on her next visit...the waiting is killing me. Mark Knopfler - Sailing To...

    The money doesn't really bother me but being unemployed at the moment I shouldn't be spending anything on music. I probably paid too much for Security and I too am unsure of how much impreovement there is. Some of the PG SACDs (I have all of them except 2 & 3) are noticably improved...

    Black Friday 2010 - listing of DVD/BD deals

    Have yet to see a single episode of this series, but thanks to overwhelmingly positive reviews everywhere I looked I decided to buy all three sets on Blu-ray. Can't resist at this price. Seriously doubt I'll be disappointed.

    Beatles in Mono.

    I've been listening to the Mono discs again in recent weeks, this time more critically. Have the original 1987 discs in stereo but haven't played them in awhile. Don't have the 2009 stereo discs, yet. So this is not a "Mono vs. Stereo" comparison on my part. Though I can't quite put my...

    Best "Unplugged" albums?

    10,000 Maniacs Alanis Morissette Tony Bennett   And, though I'm a big Clapton fan, if I never hear his Unplugged disc again (especially Layla) I will be eternally happy.

    Natalie MacMaster - In My Hands on SACD   And ordered Thelonious Monk's 5 By Monk By 5 SACD from Acoustic Sounds (via Amazon....cheaper shipping). According to AS they have only a few copies left and then that's it. So I figure buy now while the price is still normal.

    Taking this thread full circle back to it's first post over 6 years ago. My latest Hi-Rez purchase is Trey Anastasio's self titled DVD-A. Has anyone heard Trey's Shine DualDisc? Is it worth searching out?

    Paul, The BB SKU on mine is 2054727. I'm in Canada.....maybe the Canadian stores use different SKU's? I think OUaT sounds good, maybe just slightly bright but that's the only complaint I can come up with. The booklet mind you is a waste of time. The lyrics are so small and blurry...

    Sorry to hear about the Top Gun, unfortunately I'm not surprised. Those prices are too good to be true. I checked another e-bay vendor....same story, regular CD. Had the same thing happen to me a few years back with the O'Jays SACD. Luckily I found a real copy elsewhere. Many...

    No, moviemarz wasn't one of them. Please let us know what you receive. Maybe Sony, or a distributor, had a bunch of legit copies they dumped on the market.

    What Hirez Discs Have You Purchased Recently?

    I would double check with any prospective e-bay sellers on this title before buying. The pricing seemed too good to be true so I contacted a couple of sellers asking for confirmation that the disc was actually an SACD. In both cases the answer was no.....just the regular redbook. Might be...

    Picked up the Top Gun Soundtrack today on SACD. May take it back because I paid full retail at a Best Buy. Was just double checking e-bay and there are a glut of them under $10 right now.
