I like it. I used to have the AF Gold CD version, but thought it sounded deader than a cassette. I'm thinking the problem with the AF Gold version was that they used HDCD and if you don't decode the HDCD the results may be unfavourable. I've heard it on vinyl. Sounded pretty good except for the surface noise.I haven't picked up mine yet. How is it? Do you have any other copies to compare it to? I've four of them.
"Narrow Path" - Josh One (CD + DVDA).
Even though it only has the dreaded Dolby Digital logo on the back it is in fact a genuine Advanced Resolution 24-bit/96kHz DVD-Audio.
It's rather nice. Background/party kind of laid-back 'beats'/trip-hop.. chill-out.
not a huge amount of rear channel activity (or centre channel for that matter) but what there is, is mostly discrete at least, some double stereo but there's also discrete percussion, guitar strums, etc in the rear..
..and.. very pleasant surprise, the overall sound has not been compressed/maximised to death, as I expected! a healthy bit of volume and it sounds much more involving.
It helps that its so cheap! The UK seller on eBay i bought it from has it new for approx £3.. including postage!
