There's an HDCD of Alan Parson's "I Robot" which sounds awesome on my system. I swear that with this CD I get a full 180 degrees of soundstage. I've had to get up and verify that nothing was coming from my rear surrounds. I would get more of them in a heartbeat if they were available.

I have to give an absolutely unbiased opinion as to how good HDCDs sound... I just realized one of the albums I've been giving a fair listen to lately "The Rocky Horror Punk Rock Show" - punk covers of the entire RHPS soundtrack is an HDCD.
Goes to show how good the technology is, I didn't notice at all in the few dozen listens... looked over to grab and pack a tota-clamp this afternoon and lo and behold, the HDCD light is on.

You pro-audio/video geeks have your own vocabulary. Tota-clamp? I had to look that one up.
Does tota just mean portable?

Nah, just a trade name. Has a Lowel stud on it instead of a threaded rod.
I'm up at 7:30... the world just feels wrong at this time of the morning.
