Nice!

And: which ones are SACD's -- did someone have a sale?

Actually I think you posted the notice for this, it was Oldies.com and the clearance sale is still going on. There are two glitches though which I just discovered. First, the descriptions for the CDs are not the most detailed nor accurate. I bought the Kenney Burrell and Coltrane CD, it was listed as RB format but it was SACD. The second glitch which may be a deal killer for some, all the CDs have promo cuts on the cases so this virtually kills the secondary market value if you ever want to sell the CD at a later date. On the other hand, I got free shipping. :P

It is, dew eeeet!

I started to get out of hand on the order and adjusted my order from 50 CDs to 25 CDs (dropping some SACDs in the process). Nonetheless I bought 25 CDs with an average price of $5.40 per, not bad.

Recuperative still? Or are you looking forward to a second career in bodybuilding?

Nope, just trying to age somewhat gracefully. I hate exercise and by paying for a PT, I'm forced to go do it.

For my birthday... I traded my Modwright SWL 9.0SE Signature tube preamp for:

Modwright SWLP 9.0SE Signature tube preamp with tube phono

Dan Wright is building the unit as we speak.

I heard the SWP9.0SE Sig phono last weekend,

and liked the sound better than my Pass Pearl Phono, so.... :)

Nice! I really liked the SWL 9.0SE that was lent to me a while back. Are the only changes from the 9.0SE the phono section and outboard ps?
