Ive noticed some variations though in quality: for example Keb Mo's Slow Down is an awesome recording in HDCD, yet Mark Knopflers Sailing to Philadelphie is a bit disappointing. |

I'll try the "Sailing To Phil . . ." HDCD version soon and report my thoughts back here. Like all formats, there is variations in quality I guess. |

On Eric Clapton's "Chronicles" - the first track, "Blue Eyes Blue" is HDCD encoded, but the rest of the disk is not. I wasn't really disappointed because I bought the CD from the used section of my local record store and I was actually a little suprised when the HDCD LED on my player lit up. I looked at it as an added bonus, but if you buy a new copy of "Chronicles" expecting to get a whole CD worth of HDCD music, well, you might be disappointed. |
