AUDIOPHILE AUDITION has been reviewing each month more new hi-res formats than any other publication, web or print. The Multichannel Disc of the Month is Mo-FiÕs remastering of the acclaimed Ravel collection with the Minnesota Orchestra, including the Bolero and La Valse. One of the top pop SACDs is Bob DylanÕs Highway 61 Revisited from the 15-SACD set just released. String Quartets of Ravel, Debussy & Faure on Tacet place the four players at your front L & R plus the surround speakers - putting you in the midst of the quartet. Five classic jazz discs from Concord Records are reviewed in their new SACD guise - Herb Ellis/Joe Pass, Ray Brown, The LA4, Mel Torme, and Cal Tjader. Music Video DVD reviews include Sinead OÕConnor, Eric Clapton, Elaine Stritch and Mstislav Rostropovich, cello. [www.audaud.com is the alternate URL]
