I just noticed this new title being released by Hong Kong's Top Music. Below is a link to Top Music's webpage to the SACD....

Ray Conniff & Orchestra - April In Paris

Don't be scared off by the list price of US$32.00, because Hong Kong e-tailer hifi-cd.com has it for US$21.50. Hifi-cd.com is a great e-tailer that I, along with several other CP members, used some of our purchases. Some ebay resellers may have it for even less.

Edit: Just purchased the SACD from ebay reseller "unixsystem" for US$17.30. Not affiliated other than being a satisfied customer rom previous purchases.

    Awesome, another SACD I wouldn't buy.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Like some of Top Music's previous SACD releases, this one was also sponsored by an audio component manufacturers. It seems that the elimination of the obi strip on the newer Top Music SACDs is some kind of cost-cutting measure. Still, the SACD was pressed by Sonopress in Germany.
