sony AND target. Canada must not like nice things.

The Americans was on display at Stanford's Cantor Arts Center and luckily I was there on the last day of the exhibition. I had seen some images, but there were dozens of them and it was very cool.

My take is hi-res is marginally better on hi-fidelity systems. I do sense an increased sense of ease in the experience. But re-mastering is WAY more important. If "hi-rez" can be sold to the public with the bullshit numbers argument and we get MQA hi-res streaming available on premium services at $20-$30/month...I'm fine with that... ...as long as we're also getting re-mastered music that sounds like it was supposed to. As an aside, I did chat with a number of folks at CES that were aware of pretty significant efforts at the labels to do just that.

looking good, heatshrink that shit for style points

Just like you Tyll...I think most of it is due to much better mastering and one will need a resolving enough system to different standard redbook & hi-rez system apart. I wish every redbook album can sound just as good as Eva Cassidy - Live at Blues Alley album.

Humiliatingly enough, I sliced it open with my new penknife in my eagerness to open the parcel ¬ _¬

^^^ ditto. Douglas, did you bash your thumb with that big bad camera?

Have 8-tracks gone out of style already?

Or it's how life teaches you to play through the pain

Nice to see a little bit of Duggeh after all this time. And that is one BIG ASS CAMERA! Good luck with that.

The 1Ds arrived. It is not light. Feels even more solid than the 1N though. Handles just like the 1N. Right down to the practical ISO limit at 1250. 40mm FOV is best FOV. I shall take it out this weekend and give my back muscles a workout.

This is a band I think I would've really been into had I been born about 5 years earlier. The Jesus and Mary Chain - Stoned And Dethroned

No one who would buy a Lincoln Continental can still hear much above 3000Hz anyway ...

Wow. How was the Waffle House?
