Hi Cybot
I do love Rava very much as well. I think I may have most of his recordings.
You do? I only have the two above on vinyl. Don't do cd at all ;) I lobby ECM from time to time to keep the vinyl pressure on :) Still I should be happy with the vast vinyl catalogue already released!

Now playing via MQn playback software
Teaser quote from the Tirna MQn thread:
I've been comparing SSE2 R2.31 to some of my best vinyl (Trans-Fi Salvation deck & London Reference cartridge). I really struggled to hear meaningful differences between the two sources. To keep the vinyl sound up with the hirez digital I had to swap to my battery powered phono stage, away from the more euphonic valve phono stage. For anyone not seriously into vinyl I expect you'll not appreciate comparison but the Salvation/Reference combination is amazingly good......so is MQn 2.31.
It's the soundstaging and atmosphere that I feel MQn is doing so well now. Partly this is why I say MQn matches really good vinyl now, it manages to rival the best of vinyl and have all the other benefits of "digital".

Thanks for that Aleg. The Trans-Fi tt looks amazingly overcooked ;)

I couldn't say Cybot, as I'm not into vinyl at all, I don't know what's 'hot' today.
So last one for tonight and a good one as a night cap:
Cheers

This time it's the turn of Gary Peacock. First one's from 1977 and the second is from 1982....

I follow with a 1980 release (I don't have much Peacock)
