Allan Holdsworth: Sand | Paul - November 21, 2024

Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question. I agree with your assessment of these Holdsworth SACD releases. I still have serious doubts as to the legitimacy of the ...

Haydn: Symphonies 94, 95, 98 & 99 - Järvi | Contrapunctus - November 30, 2024

This album is also available on qobuz in DSD64 for the same price as the SACDs. I just listened to the complete album and quite enjoyed it.

Shostakovich: Symphonies 1-15 - Barshai | DYB - Today 11:49 am

This is an intriguing surprise. I'll definitely get it; I have the regular CDs and these are outstanding performances.

Dvořák: Symphonies 1-9 - Kubelik | Contrapunctus - November 10, 2024

Puccini: La Bohème - Karajan | hiredfox - November 6, 2024

Retailing at over 150 US$ this release must be setting a new record price for a SACD. Are we SACD buffs being exploited one wonders?

Bruckner: Symphony No. 9 - Karajan | Contrapunctus - November 30, 2024

I'm really curious about this new remastering. The versions on RBCD (even in the remastered complete 60's recordings box) don't impress/convince me.
