I've been intrigued by advertisements for the _Chesky Jazz Sampler and
Audiophile Test CD_.  It's claims are (from HFN&RR, July 1990):

	After nine Jazz selections, each a showcase for the company's
	proprietary 128-times oversampling technology, the _Chesky Jazz
	Sampler Volume I_ offers conclusive tests to show the existence
	of such disputed characteristics as (1) image height, (2) stage
	width beyond the speaker's edges, (3) stage depth and (4) absolute
	polarity.  These illustrations are so vivid that they can be
	used to silence those who argue that such sonic properties are
	'imaginary'.  This disk settles it, once and for all.

Has anyone listened to this CD?  Has it been reviewed anywhere?  And the
bottom line:  It is worth purchasing?

Jon
