    Best RBCD sound I've heard -- with this, who needs hi-rez, vinyl?
    I talking about ...

    Bartok: Concerto for Orchestra, etc.
    Ivan Fischer & Budapest Festival Orchestra
    Philips 456 575-2

    Electrifying sound; great performance too.

    if I can buy vinyl for 50 cents....why not ^_^
    havent seen any CDs sell 50 cents...usually they go for a dollar or more.
    Bigger market for them i guess

    If so, I'll buy it new just for comparison's sake.

    I doubt it will have the bass of the CD, though.

    Some might even appreciate the very low noise of CD compared to phonographs, or the far superior distortion performance. Distortion of which, is within [1]JNDs, due to the summed process of phonograph production and playback.

    But again, it is possible some find the distortion euphonic?
