Hi

I am looking for some exceptional quality saxophone recordings (either red book or SACD). Style-wise I have the usual discs but really like the slower stuff and Ray Brown's "Some of my best friends are the sax players" (Telarc CD-83388).

Can you suggest any others I should consider?

Thanks

John

Hi

I have "SRV&DT The Real Deal: Greatest Hits Volume 2" and "SRV&DT - In Step".

Can you suggest a great CD (red book or SACD) to add to my collection? I am looking for exceptional recording quality.

If not can you suggest a website I should visit?

Thanks

John

I own a pair of Vandersteen 2CE speakers and would like to know what others have found to be the best matching amps,in the upto $2,000 range, for these speakers.

The list is out, and those of us so inclined can scan it and smile when we encounter equipment we own in desirable categories. What is more satisfying for me is to find equipment I've been listening to happily for some time showing up in the Associated Equipment lists provided with reviews. Buy right, and be happy for a long time - or something like that.

So I just received the recommended components issue and something has struck me as odd regarding the classification of NHT's speakers. The Evolution T6 is placed in "Class A", and the Xd is placed in "Class A - Restricted Extreme LF" with a little note from JA that he wanted to place it in "High Class B" but that he "demurs to KR's class A".

You know it's coming: The day when CDs are no longer being pressed and all music purchases will be made online with the music being stored on a hard drive or in a memory stick.
When I look into my crystal ball I can even see that music existing in a hifi, uncompressed format or a lossless format.
But that is not what troubles me. What troubles me is the loss of a tangible medium. As I write this, I'm looking at my "wall of CDs" and my racks of LPs across the room. I'm proud of my collection. I arrange them into separate genres. I vacuum clean my LPs. I like looking at the cover
