What's the latest Multichannel SACD or DVD-A added to your pile? - Volume 2

[JediJoker]

Talking Heads 77 is actually kind of hidden here: sneaky-sneaky

Ah. That explains it. European CD/DVD release rather than the North American DualDisc.

True, but the DVD is labelled as a DVD-A, and states "Plays on all DVD players". I've only ever played the audio portions of my Remain in Light, and Speaking In Tongues European CD+DVD sets, but had no issues with them.

The DVDs are DVD-As, yes. I wasn't suggesting they wouldn't play, just that it made sense Talking Heads '77 didn't show up in my search, as I had selected the "DualDisc" filter.

Elton John S/T SACD and
Tomita Planets Ultimate Edition Sacd 4.0 sounds incredible!!!

Cool. No problem. I thought maybe you had a preference for DualDiscs, like trying to complete the collection, so I just wanted to be clear. The newer Bullmoose website is a little trickier than than the old one: sometimes lumping all of the optical formats together like with Diana Krall: Look of Love, other times breaking them out. Searching and saving to wishlists is a little trickier now - got to make sure you have the desired sub-format selected.

When I special ordered Talking Heads: 77, because it was the European version, Bullmoose (or their distributor) reinforced that the DVD may not play here in North America, and it made me pause for a bit. I had to sanity check logos on the back of the European discs I already owned and compare the UPC for "77" to make sure I was sure.

I saw that there myself a couple of weeks ago...and cursed myself for paying quite a bit more for the copy I bought about a year ago

I did pick up Blood, Sweat & Tears S/T on Audio Fidelity 4.0 SACD for $29.99, so not a wasted trip

Thanks for supporting them! That audiophile section in the back is so well stocked - and the wall of classical SACDs, many for $2-4, is even more fun (for me).

Picked up a couple of classical SACDs today as well. I adore that place. It's been my home away from home for over 30 years now.

I've been after this one for a while now and finally found it for a semi-sensible price this past weekend. The 5.1 mix and sonics are impressive for a live album of this vintage, but man is this loud. They couldn't leave just a little more headroom? I started out well below my reference level and only backed off the volume from there...

 

[Guitmark]

Just went on a buying spree at CD Japan. C'mon DHL!

 

[knifeman]

The Doors Waiting for the Sun, The Soft Parade, and Morrison Hotel. Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow (Analogue Productions). Doobies Captain and Me. Guess Who's Wheatfield Soul/Canned Wheat and Argent's In Deep. Abraxas just ordered.
