These are all excellent - I would have loved to hear "Popsicle", one of my favorites from the "Sand in the Vaseline" collection in surround! OOuch

Listening now to Herbie Hancock's Head Hunters 5.1, 24/176.1Khz ripped from SACD and played through JRiver. Just a super duper disc to own.
I decided to listen to this after looking at Keywhiz avatar. Thanks.

Yes, this is weather, the whole state burned in November and in the last 8 days, SF got 4 ", Mt Tam 11", almost unbelievable , why didn't it do this 3 weeks ago and no one would have died? God Only Knows.
Rain again on Saturday and then off and on next week.

Steely Dan, Countdown to Ecstasy ripped 4.0 Quad, that I received from a friend, very robust surround, sounds awesome.
Listening via Pure Direct mode at PCM 24/96. DR values range from 10-12.

Continuing right through to Spring Fever, though that wasn't the plan.
Great liner notes hooked me.

Listening now to The Band-Music From Big Pink, 5.1 BD-A ripped to JRiver player at 24/96Khz PCM. DR values range from 12-14. This release is one of those that 5.1 opens buried music that was in stereo that you can now hear better through spread out speakers, right off the bat in track 1 that tambourine is so evident not as easily heard in stereo. A great American roots album that did an actual shift for other artists, this has been highly documented. While listening to Steely Dan's Countdown To Ecstasy I heard The Band in one of the ending tracks which prompted me to play this.

The surround-mix is nothing to write home about but the fidelity is pretty good and I take everything I can get in this genre

Listening now via Tidal at work, pretty good, Dream Theater sounding.

Yep, but a little faster occasionally, and I like that

Native Sons - Loggins & Messina

feeling a bit under the weather so having a duvet day and cheering myself up with some favourite tunes.. man i flippin' love this one, its better than Lemsip.. seriously, easily one of the all-time best Columbia Quad mixes imho, really makes the most of the SQ system, brings out all the layers in the sumptuous production.
