I've said it before, but I really like your setup, with slots for vinyl and discs/equipment. Just very cool.

I use these for The vinyls

Been quite awhile since i've spun this one . . . so long, in fact, that it "Feels Like the First Time"!

Love it! I'm gonna spin too and then look to see what I voted!

All my Quadios are in now, ripped and neatly put away.
This one I was the most interested in as Jazz in surround is out there of course, but not in the numbers as other genres. I think it has to do with that pure old jazz sound of stereo and whiskey.

Starrider may be my favorite. It could easily pass for an early Styx song.

Oh my, can you imagine a proper Atmos mix of this album by Mr Wilson, or SW Tayler? Oh boy... @Stephen W Tayler

Rambling on some more. Is this debut by Foreigner one of the greatest debut late 70's rock records? It's gotta be up there. IMO of course.

Didn't know SW Taylor had done any Atmos mixes? I'm in for a Atmos mix by SW for this and 4 to.

This is a beautiful, introspective release with nice, subtle use of surrounds that really enhances the mood.

Did revisiting it change your vote?

Whatcha think, Comrade?

Absolutely KILLER! And it looks as if the poll thread just went live! I'll try and compose something. I bought the 50th anniversary complete sessions on LP during the Black Friday Record Store Day, and it's been in HEAVY rotation through the ol' Surround Master. What a blessing to have the original quad now in phenomenal fidelity! LOVE this release!

He hasn't! he's just waiting on someone to ask him. Obviously, with his talent, he could do amazing things.

I didn't look!!

 

[GOS]

Did revisiting it change your vote?

It really did. I originally voted an 8. Hmmm. I ramped it up to 10. Why? The content is a 12, fidelity is a 10, surround is a 9. That averages to at least a 10

At last I have been commissioned for my first one - finally!!
