New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

The Norvo might-have-been...

would have been a winner. As coincidence would have it, I'd just snapped up the Music Direct closeout of the Farnon Hornblower vinyl...beautiful recording at $6.99 for a pair of LP's.

Although I agree that concentration on quality-engineered classical releases was a factor, I don't know that pablum in and of itself would have saved RR. Their marketing has been as low-profile as their production values are high, and they simply never got--nor seemed to go after--much beyond-the-audiophile-beltway exposure for even their jazz releases (e.g., Norvo and Kitaev).

Oh, well...I'm glad I just yanked my long-in-tooth SOTA out of the closet and put it back on line.
