Picture of the Day - March 25


SoundStagers Marc Mickelson, Doug Schneider and Wes
Phillips along with Wes' wife Joan Mannes (far left) attended a special demo of
24-bit/88.2kHz four-channel master recordings hosted by the engineer who made them, Peter
McGrath of Wilson Audio (right). Pairs of Wilson Grand SLAMM Series III speakers for the
front channels and MAXX for the rears were driven by multiple Mark Levinson No.33H and
No.434 amplifiers and other Proceed and Mark Levinson electronics. The source was a Nagra
digital recorder. The sound was enormous and displayed dynamic contrasts and loudness
capability that could only be compared to live music. In fact, more than a few
live concerts haven't sounded as clear and powerful.
