While Jon was <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/jons_rainbow/">on his way home</a>, I was back at <a href="http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/lucia_lodge/">Lucia Lodge</a>, working on “Recommended Components.” Earlier in the day, Jon and I had had a big lunch, but I knew that Tom, the lodge manager, would be expecting me for dinner at Lucia’s restaurant. Though I wasn’t particularly hungry, I shut down my laptop, and walked outside. Funny how things work out.

Until recently, I have considered LaserVision video discs as a rather dubious medium for serious music reproduction. The only review I had read about it by a critical listener (Harry Pearson in <I>The Absolute Sound</I>) was I singularly unenthusiastic, and since I had not heard one myself, I was inclined to take his word for it.
