To be fair, he did post that in 2006 so it probably wasn't that hard to find at Best Buy back then.
I just converted this one to PCM and had a look at the individual tracks in Nuendo as part of my project to check channel assignments/balances after I noticed the O'Jays and Isley Brothers discs had swapped rear channels, and I'm happy to report that everything with this disc is perfect - all the channels are as they should be, levels are correct, and phase is correct. Additionally, spectral analysis shows audio content well above 30kHz so this is truly a high-res release.
We should start a thread with TRUE HI REZ SACDs... The ONLY one I've found so far is Tomita's Planets recent SACD...now, if ALL SACD were like this, I wouldn't protest...but most cut off at 20-23K
The multichannel content is the same as the older SACDs, perhaps with a different mastering. I believe this thread is meant for all.Is this the correct poll thread for the Japan 7" SACD from CD Japan? The thread seems a lot older than the release.
The Head Hunters are reuniting for a concert later this month, with Marcus Miller filling in for the late Paul Jackson:
