Mark, it's a great CD, especially the 20 bit version. The late Paul Desmond, the sax player and writer of Take Five was the genius in the quartet. These days after all the tweaking and measurements its the first track I play for a real world sound check.

I just finished watching Beowulf. This was an absolutely entertaining movie. The 600 performed wonderfully with the exception of some really loud LFE at the very beginning where I heard the strange driver noise that some of us have been complaining about. Beowulf is the last movie I got on HD DVD. There was some cool stuff in it, but I don't know if I'll need to watch it many more times. I'll give it another go sometime and see if I happen to notice any odd driver noise.

Have you heard the SACD version, John? It was one of the first things I played when I got the EP350. Jaw dropping. Also, having seen Brubeck in concert a few years ago, I can say that Paul Desmond was not the only genius.

I had a cd version. The SACD version was not available so I picked up the 20bit remaster. I'll have to get my hands on the SACD disc. You're lucky to have seen Brubeck in concert.

I'll have to get the SACD version as well. I have always felt like "Time Out" was an incredible timeless recording. It was recorded in the 50's but sounds like it could have been recorded in any decade since then and still fit in.

As I recall, I've seen him twice. It was amazing to still see and hear him playing like that in his 80s. I'm also a big fan of Time Further Out, which I don't believe is available in anything special (other than CD). But it's got some really great music on it.

And one of those times you were kind enough to invite us along. Seriously, one of the greats and I was glad I was there.
