New DVD-Audio music releases and talk about the latest players.

Don't you just hate it?

I've been looking for quite a while for something that is better than the venerable SCD-1, and isn't stupid money. I finally found it. More detail, better resolution than the SCD-1, without being forward-sounding. One of the nits that bugged me about the SCD-1 was a touch of sibilance on vocals; minor, but there. The Ayre cured that problem.

The fact that it plays DVD-Audio, and DVD-A discs can be navigated without a video display (yay!) is gravy at this price point.

The dealer ordered the unit, but turnaround time is expected to be quick enough that he told me to keep the demo until the new one arrives.

Now I have to figure out what do do with the SCD-1. Should I sell it, or build a shrine? ;-)
