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!
