Music Reviews (mostly vinyl records, but also CD's, and of course - " audiophile" recordings)

In our music reviews we hope to give you insight into those select few recordings which offer more value than the average in one respect or another.  And to really expose those which have outstanding sound quality.  The term "audiophile" is often a little vague for those not exposed either to a high performance audio system, or to other "audiophile's". All this term really means, is someone who really gets into the quality of the sound, or in the case of a product, a product which excels in sound quality. There are recording labels that specialize in "audiophile" recordings, and these are usually better than the standard edition.  But ironically, some labels, or recording engineers, or studios, or a combination there of have produced "standard" caliber recordings which still manage this sonic distinction. Some refer to vinyl records of this distinction as "hot stampers". Regardless of the various names, we want to bring you a list of recordings which meet these criteria, which are "above the norm" and truly worth owning.

As digital platforms continue to advance, we will follow them with interest. For instance, MQA shows much promise, but to date nothing replaces vinyl for it's exactness in replicating the most natural sound closest to the original setting.
