It is just 'Charlie Haden Jim Hall'.

Listening to Ray Des, The Pearl Harbor Theme on Spotify right now and my God it sounds spectacular!  When music can give you goose bumps, I guess that means its lighting up  my Omega's.

+1 for Glen Hansard's "Didn't He Ramble" album which is just wonderful through my Super 3 XRS. Grace Beneath the Pines being my "Test" cut to see how the RS5's are breaking in....

Additional:
Chris Isaak - Forever Blue
Cassandra Wilson - New Moon Daughter - Love is Blindness
Clannad - Rogha: The Best of Clannad
Chris Cornell - Carry On (Live)Crosby, Stills Nash & Young - Deja Vu
De Lucia, Di Meola, McLaughlin - Passion, Grace and Fire as well as Saturday Night in San Francisco
James Taylor - October Road
Jack Johnson

Max Richter's recomposition of Vivaldi's Four Seasons is sure doing the trick at the moment.

Earlier today I was also impressed by the 3XRS's presentation of The Marshall Mathers LP. In my moderately-sized-to-small room there was some real bass flying around, and all the tongues in cheeks and energy, and anger and frustration came through without feeling like it was being pushed out of speakers.

I just love how the music appears from nothing with these things. I'm still only running a little Tripath amp, (though I recently ordered a gainclone to try out as well).

Got the SAMs going this morning.  Listening to Dorati's recording of Bartok's Miraculous Mandarin on Londan/DECCA from 1985. Amazing how well the SAMs convey the dynamics and impact of this piece!

Charles Lloyd, Charles Lloyd, and Charles Lloyd! He's and absolute killer and only got better with age. The albums "Hyperion With Higgins" and "Sangam" are standouts with Omega loudspeakers.

Another great one is Enrico Rava's "Easy Living". The standout track is "Sand".

Cheers!

Ludovico Einaudi, Divenire. 

One of the most beautiful pieces of music to come along in a long time.  The SAMs with their sublime midrange do a treat to piano, not to mention the rest of the orchestra.

Super Zen, Peter Daniel NOS DAC, SAMs.
