I misinformed. When he said album, he meant CD. Huge bummer - sorry

Does HD Tracks have their own mastered file delivered to them? I doubt it. The 24/96 mastering for download is indicated in the DR Database. http://dr.loudness-war.info/album/list?artist=Tool&album= It’s what I’ve been listening to via Qobuz and it sounds terrific. The DR for the CD appears to have the same specs as the downloads. Edit: Actually, the CD has higher compression than the hirez download. Too bad, the record labels will never change. With CDs we're stuck with an inferior product. |
Been listening since the weekend to Tidal streamed version via Roon (4-5 times), until last night when I listened to the 96.0kHz/24bit version. The improvement was obvious (although it was not HUGE, maybe 10-15% better) in the first 45 seconds. Mostly it was in the realm of improved imaging, as each sound comes from a tighter apparent point source. |
