The wife was out shopping whilst I was in electronics class today. Came home to her showing off her new summer shoes, and a gift for me!
I love my tall(er than me), shapely audiophile wife (and serious Rush fan as well)!!!
Gonna be playing the hi-rez stereo track tonight (no surround setup yet). That makes four different versions of this that have been through my household-
1. Robert Ludwig Masterdisc LP (how many of you know that this was originally cut from a Sony/Beta PCM F-1 digital tape?).
2. Original Anthem CD when it came out ( Can't remember, but I think it was also from the F-1 digital tape, as the old SPARS code said it was ADD. It was traded away when I got the Rush Remasters Series CD)
3. Rush Remasters series CD (more detail and space than the LP, IMHO- cut from Analog master- go figure!).
4. This new 30th Anniversary Version, DVD-A/CD set. As yet to hear what the 24bit/96k transfer of the master sounds like or the vanilla CD. I'm also wishing I could hear the new surround mixes Lerxst did! I bet they'd be pretty killer! but alas, no surround sound setup for the DVD-A at the moment...
