Bitches Brew Quadraphonic SACD from Sony Japan

[fredblue]

Unless one chose expedited shipping/handling, I think we Import/Cders might get it before the CDJapaners do. It usually takes approximately a month to receive my orders from CDJapan without expedited s/h.

in the words of BJ;
"you may be right"..!!

And just think, Adam, you'll be able to play it on your new multi region, modded OPPO 203 and donate your Cambridge Universal Player to the Sisters of Mercy!

this is very true, oh Ralpheeo! the prospect of a modded oppo is quite delicious!
i shall however retain the services of the trusty CA BDP for the time being and keep it hooked up in the rig until such time as i tire of it and say "Orf with his head (unit)..!!"
oh gawd that Chardonnay this evening was way too yummy for words..

A piece of sage advice mon chardonaire extraordinaire, from your Big Brother across the pond: when you receive the 203, make sure it works. I'm having issues with my brand new multi region Oppo UHD 205....it won't play SACD. I will get to the bottom of it. OPPO won't repair it as it's been 'tinkered' with so I'll have to do my own 'tinkering.'

..the sting in the tail, Ralphie.. buzz buzz.. just got stung for customs on the BB SACDs..! ouch! so that's £22 quid extra gone into HM's coffers. next time someone opines about the segnitude of DV's international delivery i may remind them DV's shipments abroad may be arse-cripplingly slow but CDJapan's ultra speedy international delivery comes at a hefty price (everything i've ever ordered from them, no matter the order total, nor the delivery method, has attracted customs duty etc., several times exceeding the value of the item sent!) plus the Japanese product is a gazillion times more expensive than DV's in the first place. oh well, I'll quit my bitchin', I'm thrilled BB's on its way, even if its a premium product with a price to match, if its fidelity matches its beauty you won't hear me whingeing!

So, at $46US delivered, maybe I'm the luckier bitch. It'll take a few weeks more but I'm patient. Hell, it was recorded 48 years ago so what's a few more days.

Hell yeah! I got email from CD Japan toooooooooooooooooo! (snood??)
Mine shipped out...and since I didn't choose tracking.....I will be pacing around for a bit...lmao

Getting mine tomorrow from cdjapan. I sprung for the expedited shipping.

 

[Jim the Oldbie]

Hadda work all damn night ("gettin' too old fer this shit"), but my friendly notice from cdjapan was waiting in my inbox this morning!

My banana is too tired to dance, however.

I did also get a bag of Ebay parts to start building my custom 12-channel digital-controlled analog master volume control. Looks like everything is there except the main PC board. So, that kinda sucks.

Once to Spain has been shipped too

Sorry to hear you got "nicked" for more money...but for some of us..it was worth it to see segnitude and whingeing in the same paragraph

When I order from cdJapan I usually get them in 7 to 10 days and I live in Florida...and I just use airmail...not any expedited service....they beat the UK based sources....amazon UK is getting even slower...
