    Hello, Rick and good morning to you. What a wonderful album this is. I enjoy it often. He's accompanied by some great talent throughout that album.

    Oh, wow! I didn't even know that there was an SACD of this selection. In looking at the used and new prices, I wish I had gotten the SACD when they were readily available as well. Looks like a minimum of 100 bills for an unopened one or one in close to "like new" condition. Idgit (me).

    Has anybody heard the SACD and been able to compare it to the RB version by chance?

    No doubt. MFSL SACD to boot. Once again, the RB ain't too shabby though. Yet another album I enjoy immensely. I loved how they mixed in the new with the old on the title track. In fact, I just listened to that album yesterday.

    While I haven't heard the "Genius Loves Company" SACD, sorry. I am wondering if any of you guys have heard the 2 MFSL Ray Charles SACD's ("The Genius Sings The Blues" and "The Genius of Ray Charles")? I have not yet, but am seriously thinking of buying them. MFSL's track record of SACD's is 100% so far for what I have heard so I am pretty sure they sound great, but a confimation would probably make me run out soon and buy them.

    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Hey all...been MIA from this thread for awhile. The move went well and the 2-channel is mostly setup in the new place.

    Rick! New speaks. Sounds like your digging the LSi sound. Their the best, most detailed speakers I personally have ever owned.

    Chumlie, maybe you'll have to jump on board??

    I havn't tried anything with mine.

    With the 15's, the side 'panels' don't start until about a third of the way down. So what is essentially the LSi7 'part' of the LSi15 is all piano black gloss. I really like it.

    But if you find some good feedback on the wax, I would consider it on the panels that cover the bottom two-thirds of mine. They are supposed to be black, but are like a faded black/grey when compared to the piano plack on top.

    They're not faded; that's how they're supposed to be.

    I figured that's how they're supposed to be. Just describing the finish. I do wish they were all piano black, however. Just my opinion.
