Eric Lowen, half of the folk duo Lowen and Navarro, passed away on March 23, 2012 after a 9-year battle with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis also known as Lou Gehrig's disease) with his family and close friends gathered around. Eric's amazing talents, passion for music and his continuous positive outlook on life were an inspiration to all of us who were fortunate to know him. He will be missed.Read More

"…plays me selections from AIX’s 3D Blu-ray music demo disc that range from a Mozart string quartet to solo jazz piano to Mark Chesnutt’s country band to Rita Coolidge belting out "Brickyard Blues." …the multichannel audio, emanating from five B & W 801 loudspeakers, is quite simply the most realistic and involving instance of recorded sound I can recall, from any source format."

Recently, I was alerted to an article published in HiFi News & Record Review, a British audiophile publication that claims to be "the longest serving and most prestigious hi-fi and music magazine in the world". It was written by Keith Howard, an acquaintance of mine from some years back, and entitled, "HD download debacle". The subtext reads, "High sample-rate music downloads are not all they seem".

You all know the product category that I'm talking about. Audiophiles are dedicated to their tweaks and fine tuning in the search for the "absolute sound" as Harry Pearson put it so eloquently all those years ago, but there are lot of snake oil salesman out there trying to convince you that purchasing their magic elixir [for $60 a bottle] will result in… Read More

First, let me state that I'm not against analog recording. I have been using analog tape machines for over 30 years and still have my NAGRA IV-S machine and QGB 10 1/2" reel adapter in my studio (I just noticed a QGB went for over $5K on eBay...but I cannot part with my machine). However, I continue to read on other forums that analog recording is the "brass ring"… Read More

I was invited to join an audio centric web portal yesterday and while looking around on their site, I noticed the "We Support Real Stereo" logo. I've encountered it before and was aware of their campaign so I clicked on the link and read their "mission statement" and even visited a number of the sites that have signed up. Read More

A couple of recent emails and discussions regarding the relative merits of multichannel music vs. 2-channel stereo prompts me to open up the topic once again. I'll state my preference right out front...I absolutely love multichannel music! Of course, AIX Records (my record company) has been recording in high definition and delivering music albums with both multichannel… Read More

In my last newsletter, I lauded the capabilities of the Blu-ray format as a platform for HD Music (with or without video accompaniment. I also mentioned that I believe the Blu-ray is the final spinning disc that consumers will ever have to put into a player. The reason is simple: the cloud. If you haven't yet heard of cloud computing, here's a quick explanation. Read More

I know this is a website dedicated to the world of High Definition recordings in stereo and surround but I couldn't help but share parts of an article in Electronic Musician by Gino Robair entitled "Learn Mixing | Tips for Mixing for Vinyl". There are many in the world of audiophiles that believe that vinyl is still the ultimate format for releasing music. Read More

I receive the HD Tracks newsletter on a regular basis and noticed their big announcement the other day. It seems that ABKCO's catalog of early Stones albums is now available as part of HD Tracks' "HD Remastered Series". The albums are available as 176.4 kHz/24-bit and 88.2 kHz/24-bit downloads. Knowing that these albums were recorded over 50 years ago, I was dubious and so I decided to…Read More

I happened across a discussion at Computer Audiophile that has uncorked the HD Music Download world's dirty little secret.

I started life as a wanna be rock n' roll guitar player thanks to the influence of The Beatles and other 60's bands. The first band that I played in was called "The Paupers" and we definitely were. But I was hooked. Music was everything for me…listening AND playing. Read More

AIX was the first to produce enhanced CDs back in 1995, the first to record and deliver HD surround music on DVD-Audio discs back in 2000 and the first to offer true HD surround music via digital music downloads. And now we've taken the next step. Read More
