This was originally released (in hi-res format) as a DVD Audio. The resolution used was 24bit/48kHz for both stereo and surround layer. The 24/48 stereo is now available for download from HDTracks for those with music servers and digital streams players.
I suppose the question regarding this release ... more |

I was soooo looking forward to the arrival of this disk but it was an anti-climax. I would like to agree with the sentiments of DSD and Steve Steckel with respect to the 1812 Overture. I think this is a rather poor, lifeless and uninspiring recording with far better recordings on SACD (and DVD ... more |

Is this the best Scenes from Swan Lake album? Well I also have a Karajan RBCD of the same which I do love and I could think of some phrasing on Karajan that I prefer but the performance is still excellent. To be honest there are frankly much better qualified people on this forum to discuss the ... more |

Well I'm hooked. Another excellent artist in the Linn stables.
I always worry about comparing artists to their peers so I hope Maeve is not insulted when I say her music style reminds me a little of KD Lang (at her best).
The album opens with 'Old Greebwich Time' co-written with Ricky Ross of ... more |

| Both are standard CD casings, not SuperJewel.
Again if you are looking for the better release the Japanese Sony release is far better. The Columbia has no LFE worthy of mentioning for starters. The Sony release has much better bass and piano presence, nice LFE, cleaner brass and is a superior product IMHO.
I'll be interested to here the Stereo ... more |

| I too recently had a similar issue when I swapped a Blu-ray for an SACD. The player just displayed 'Loading' and did nothing else. Even ejecting and reloading with different discs of different formats made no difference.
Power cycling resolved it. ... more |

| I purchased this from a Japanese seller on a certain action site when it was just released. It was the only place I could find it, well not at the silly prices charged by certain audiophile web sites. It. was limited to 1500 copies. There a couple available on the sed action site. Or if you wish to pay silly prices then just do a search on 'Karajan ... more |

| Interestingly, Stevie Wonders 'Songs In The Key Of Life' is to be released on Blu-Ray Audio only according to CDJAPAN. I Wonder if it will be 5.1.
