Some news from IR you may or may not have seen. There's a new album up for pre-order -- Dillard & Clark - The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard & Clark
Order The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard & Clark on hybrid CD/SACD, remastered direct-to-DSD from the original 1968 analog tapes by Kevin Gray at CoHEARent Audio. This A&M Records classic is housed in Super Jewel Box packaging and plays on all CD and SACD players.

SACD for now, vinyl later in the year.
ALSO, looks like they are reissuing Quincy Jones - The Dude. Definitely on SACD, not sure about vinyl but I'd assume so.
lastly, if anybody has a SACD player, it looks like Shane is looking for some help with testing some upcoming titles for SACD.
IR NEEDS YOU- I need someone with sensitive ears and preferably a headphone setup to QC CD/SACD check discs.
The SACDs are tricky because they have to play SACD-Rs, which in my household only my Opponent BDP-93 or 95 does.
the CD discs will play on anything and because they're derived direct from the DSD any errors should be present if they are there.
DM me if you're interested. Not a total free lunch- you need to spend concentrated time and I need them turned around in about a week.
Quincy Jones just arrived, will be first up!
