First Reel-to-Reel title from MA Recordings

It sound logical Todd would be taking care of his customers with new boxes.
BTW, how did the tape compared to 24/176.4 wav file?
I will say that I listened on a system that I had never heard before. So, take that into consideration when proceeding!. The tape sure sounded excellent. I listened to the digital file first through at Oppo I think the 105. No contest, the tape won hands down. However, when we listened to the file through the Bricasti DAC (I think the M1 with a Aurender) they sounded the same to me or darn close. To close to call, unlike the Oppo. The tape sounds like the sound I get at home on my system. It is a dam fine recording on any format. I will see what Todd brings to the New York show, provided of course, that he is there. One of his Mozart recordings comes highly recommended. The Sera Una Noche sounds surreal on the 24/176.4 file I have from Todd.
Thanks to Gary and Ki for the great work in helping make this happen. As I noted in my original thread, my copy arrived on Wednesday, after spending a week in various post office locations in my town. The cute wooden box - a bit like a jigsaw puzzle - works OK. Both tapes played wonderfully. According to the record notes, the record and the tape were both done in analogue and the digital recordings were made in parallel.

since dinner isn´t ready in another hour or so, I could simply not resist......
to put it this way
it sounds as the box looks
rich, fullbodied, natural....in my opinion this is the best performance of this masterwork together with GGs 1981 version
love the harmonics
but then again...an all out A80 is a fantastic and substantial sounding reproducer

I am jealous Leif. Would have loved to have this performance of GV. I would have to live vicariously through you instead .

10-15 minutes into this, I get this soothing, comforting sensation of the beautiful harmonics and decay from the venue
it gives me an inner peace that suits me just fine after a stressful and hectic working day, that even included an evacuation due to a bomb threat to my employer, Norways largest bank DNB
close to 5000 people evacuated from 3 different adjacent buildings....quite a sight!
music like this helps us cope with theese horrid times
