Suggestions for Dutton Vocalion Multichannel SACD Releases

Harry Nilsson, "Nilsson Schmillson". I just bought a used copy on Quad CD-4 Vinyl. The mix is crazy, especially Jump In The Fire! Unfortunately the B side sounds like frying bacon throughout. Hoping a ultrasonic cleaning will make a difference. Would love this in the next batch of Dutton Vocalion SACDs!

I’m envious that you have working CD4.

Who knew that a relatively cheap Ion knockoff of the Technics 1200mk2 had low capacitance wiring? Combined with an Audio-Technica AT-VM95S would work so well???

Well don't shoot the messenger, I was just quoting what that John Cale historian had to say on his webpage! I had to go back to see what you were referring to and I have to say it was nice be reminded that I've contributed a few semi-intelligent things here over the years, though I have to confess I don't remember writing all of it - I feel a bit like that scene in the film Old School when Will Ferrell reels off a perfect answer and then snaps out of his trance when he's finished and says "what happened? I blacked out".

I know that it wasn't your own quote but those type of statements are far too common and totally untrue. I just wish that the pundits would get the story straight!

Quad was simply killed by a greedy industry that expected to become rich overnight! Looking back the time frame was ever so short! Bring out a great idea and start working out the kinks in real time over a few short years then (suddenly) DONE!

How long has Atmos been out? It still does not dominate the market but keeps going in large part due to the home theatre market.
What if Dolby had pulled the plug after only a few short years?
