Dear Bissie,
I really-really like the pick-up truck cover (visible on sa-cd.net), not the cool dude photo which appears everywhere else. But hey, I'm attracted to trucks.... ;-)

I just received this and haven't even listened yet but one thing I'm sure numerologists will be in flights of ecstasy about is that, rather than 96/24 as per the listing here, my copy says 192/24 as the sampling rate.....if 44.1/24 was Kansas we're not there anymore!

This is indeed a 24/192 recording.

Mmm, I agree he's no Fritz Wunderlich, but I think it's a bit of Balkan rusticity added in as spice!
It's the first SACD from BIS that I've actually had to turn down, not up, for fear of my hearing.
Super clear and crisp, not really warm, but that is BIS's house style versus, say Channel, a chacun son gout....
Perhaps Bissie could elucidate, at some points there was a fair bit of sound from my rears, as in instruments themselves.
Was it recorded al a Tacet, or perhaps I've just balanced incorrectly?

My first reaction was: over my dead body. But then I was told that it was on purpose, and nickc got it right above.
Surround: as far as I know, it was recorded like that. Full, long takes, minimal or non-existant editing, spacially very wide.
