^ very nice! wouldn't mind having one of those in the room, a good "conversation" piece, but agree like good stereo separation myself, though some Audiophile purists are obsessive about Mono records...and wouldn't be seen dead with a cd!

@LordGrendel - i have a good collection of SACD/DVD-A in stereo and 5.1, shame all albums aren't in this 24 bit format, then vinyl would really have "the dog" snapping at its heels!

I visit a Linn forum, many of the members there have expensive DS players but still wouldn't let go of their vinyl...

Classical music fans embraced the cd straight away, especially after Von Karajan's endorsement -they had long running issues with surface noise during quiet passages and were enthusiastic, though those old Decca SXL's are still hard to beat for dynamics!

LG is fine Mystic Fred.

My DSP is an amazing little device, it has a beautiful A/D converter built in that really gives CD's a warmer feel, and I have read more than one great conductor rave on about the benefits of CD's, and I agree wholeheartedly.

I do have some of my Telarcs that have survived over the years, they were always my favorite classical label, I have a picture of my 1812 Overture either in this thread or the Audiophile/Stereo thread Hep wrote in this section, the widest grooves of any "Music" analog album I have ever seen.
