March RVGs: Upgrade or not?

[.:.impossible]

Mr. Congeniality! Good to see you again. Maybe we've been on different threads, or maybe neither of us have been spending as much time on org.org lately. I'm sure you've been spending time with your new son. Anyway, good to see you. It seems like its been a while. I always enjoy reading your opinions.

I've been out of circulation with the baby and a lot of work projects in the launching phase...it's all good, but it's all encompassing too. Anyway, somehow I had enough left over energy to post today. I still check in and lurk once in a while, too.

Good to hear from you too, and likewise!

Tony, the TOCJ of "Ready For Freddie" sounds great - and much better than the 1995 U.S. CD. It comes up on eBay periodically, or you could get a burn. It is one of my top favorite albums. I am not going to get the new RVG, as the TOCJ is definitive for me.

It's a personal preference thing to me, Shrdlu - cool that you like the TOCJ's, but I have over the past few years traded many of the TOCJ's in for US RVG's as I much prefer their sound. Way more detail and separation, greater sense of presence. Maybe a little less "warm" than the TOCJ's but not harsh sounding to me at all.

They're cheaper, too!

I'm defintely upgrading on Conquistador from my current "don't have" to the RVG. It just makes sense to me...
