Ray Charles, Genius Loves Company (Monster Music High Definition Surround Sound CD SUPERDISC) Reviews
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very old Ray whistling through his dentures as he sung.
Comment: I am a big Ray Charles fan but this disc is terrible. Ray doesnt sound like himself, just a bad old voice trying to get the magic back, unsuccessfully. He was off key and failed to reach the higher octaves. The mixing of the music and solos is also quite poor. I listened to the first song and started searching FF for a better song,it wasn't on this disc. So sad but true. Monster Music did Ray an injustice by making this disc. They should have used tapes from his younger superstar recordings and overlayed them on this disc. Jamie Fox would have sounded better. I was so looking forward to this superdisc but stuff happens. Don't buy it or you'll be sorry. P.S. Johnny Mathis did sound good.

Summary: Monster sounds better
Comment: I owned the SA-CD Version and liked that a lot, especially the surround sound. But the Monster Version does this much better.
And you'll have a bouns track, too. And some MP3 versions. And an iPod versions. And ... even the price is lower.

Summary: Wonderful CD
Comment: This High Def Surround Sound CD Superdisc is great. You can really appreciate the fullness of the sound with this process.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Surrounded by Genius
Comment: I'm fascinated by anything in surround-sound but the high-definition process used by Monster for the Superdiscs is phenomenal, putting you right there in the recording booth with the artists.
Highly recommended and versatile package includes Dolby and DTS tracks plus something not found elsewhere: digital files for your MP3 player in Dolby Headphone Surround.
You will not find better sound technology than this. A highly recommended grammy-winning album, "kicked up a notch".
Customer Rating:
Summary: Simply fantastic
Comment: Possuo alguns SACDs e DVDs-AUDIO que já considerava espetaculares, mas este SUPERDISC me agradou muito. A qualidade sonora é surpreendente em qualquer dos três sistemas apresentados. Agora ficarei na espectativa de outros títulos no mesmo formato.
Quem possui um bom sistema de áudio precisa experimentar este SUPERDISC.

Editorial Review for Ray Charles, Genius Loves Company (Monster Music High Definition Surround Sound CD SUPERDISC):
Genius Loves Company is great in stereo but it’s incredible in surround sound, the music opens up and the dynamic among the artists is more transparent, more alive. You hear Billy Preston’s Hammond B3 in its own channel. There is an eighty-piece orchestra, a gospel choir and a horn section. In surround sound you can hear each instrument. Because there is more space in a surround field, you can hear the trumpet and the trombone separately-with each instrument occupying its own space in stereo it’s all pressed together. In surround sound it’s larger-than-life. Genius Loves Company won eight Grammy Awards, joining the rarefied company of Michael Jackson’s Thriller and Santana’s Superstition. It is the first winner of the "Best Surround Mix" Grammy, and it’s easy to understand why. In surround Sound you hear more character and passion. It allows you to explore the relationships between the artists. You really feel like you are in the company of Ray Charles. This SuperDisc also includes the original stereo recording for your CD player.
