    Chuck, you being somewhat of a bass junky with your DIY sonotube, I suggest Donald Fagen's new release "Morph the Cat" in DVD-A.
    Bass junky...... moi???? I have every album done by Steely Dan and plan on getting Morph also.

    I have that on regular CD already. But if it is worthwhile to have the other copy I will put it on the list. I find some music just isn't worth it to pay the extra for the SACD or DVDA. But I'm always looking for good titles in any genre.

    I have a combination of about 25 SACD and DVD-A titles....I really enjoy a good multichannel mix.

    For me, the problem is finding the time to just sit and enjoy.

    Totally understand that one. This is the main reason I never got into multi-channel as much as I planned on. Between the wife, who isn't the type to sit and listen, the house, a full-time job, and finally going back to school to finish my accounting degree (about a year left...woohoo!!), there just isn't time to do serious listening. I work evening shift right now, so during the day when I'm here and studying or messing around the house I have music on a lot. But, mostly it's 2 channel with sub for background noise either by CD or XM stations over satellite. I keep telling myself that things will slow down eventually.....probably around retirement.

    new and not so new albums i'm listening to: (mostly indie, rock etc.)

    destroyer, destroyer's rubies
    belle and sebastian, the life persuit
    neutral milk hotel, in the aeroplane over the sea
    the band, the band
    decemberists, picaresque
    clap your hands say yeah, clap your hands say yeah
    lyle lovett, pontiac
    sufjan stevens, illinoise
    wolf parade, apologies to the queen mary

    there's lots of other things out there i've been wanting to get. i don't listen to any multi-channel music. i keep forgetting to put The Band's The Last Waltz DVD in now that i have my Ascends. need to do that soon. i would also note that not all of these sound great, but i blame the engineers rather than the speakers. lyle lovett's pontiac sounds especially good on my ascends as does the band, and destroyer, the decemberists and sufjan all sound good.

    Bought a couple of the new Depeche Mode hybrid SACDs, Music for the Masses and Violator. Not the greatest MC ever, but still nice to have at least something "new" on SACD.
