New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Regarding Jazz At The Pawnshop...

I was at VSAC 2001 when Stan Ricker and Paul Stubblebine did a demo using a 1" analogue tape console, Sony 777 and a DAT tape machine. All sources were taken from what was the original 1/4" tape that was used to record this great piece of art (yes, the guy used a dinky 1/4" machine with the mic on a boom, while either crouching in a bathroom or the kitchen, IIRC).

Anyhow, all the sources were level matched and running through the same system and played back for a room of 60 or so. After multiple listens, the majority felt that the tape was superior, SACD second and hirez PCM was third.

While this isn't scientific, it was pretty neat.
