"To show off the new system, Marantz Brand Ambassador Ken Ishiwata looked long and hard at the Mordaunt-Short speaker range the company distributes in Europe, and came up with an amazing 'stacked pair' configuration of the Performance 6 loudspeakers, with one of the hi-tech floorstanders inverted above the other in a custom-built frame.

I've already posted my tremendous enthusiasm for the new SACD of Bernstein's "Mass," but I ordered three other SACD's from ArkivMusic at the time, and would like to comment on them as well. "Song of Songs" on Harmonia Mundi, by the English choral group, Stile Antico, is just plain gorgeous. Gorgeous singing; gorgeous music; gorgeous sonics.

Don't say that, actually, Sorabji does have his followers, as does Fredrik Ullén. The first CD sold quite well, considering the repertoire, and keeps selling (not enough to break even yet, but much better than I thought). I believe the second CD will help the previous one. And - we'll have the market to ourselves - I honestly don't think there is a

I can't really dispute anything you say. It's all so frustrating. I have just returned from visiting the Royal Opera House and looking at the list of performances on Blu Ray - mostly with DTS HD and 24 Bit PCM stereo - I'm inclined to jump in and enjoy those while I wait for markets and people to sort themselves out. Apologies for my unsubtle

Ultrasonic frequencies can only be heard if you are: (a) A bat (b) A dog (c) A rat If you want that degree of realism may I suggest you go to a concert?

If they put the SACD in a Bubble envelop the total weight would be 5 ounces or less which by First-Class Mail International from US to UK would be $4.60.

I had sent two emails to customer service, as well as one to the individual who works for them and listed his address on this site, but none of the three have been answered.
