I know you're talking CDs but Carmen's albums sound outstanding on Qobuz. Check out the lack of compression.

Well mastered Compact Disks
CD's are coming back. And rightly so. If one has a good dedicated red book CD player then the SQ is still better than any streaming, if the CD has been mastered well.
These Carmen Gomes Inc. albums are exemplary. Dynamic range is left unhindered and to my ears they sound just about as good as the DXD versions.
Please feel free to suggests more examples of well mastered compact Discs.

All her albums recorded by Sound Liaison the Visual Sound sounds amazing. I don't know where her CD's were mastered but the ones I have does come close to the original studio master download even though they are 'only' redbook CD's. |
@spenav Bill Evans village vanguard, that's my favorite mastering as well. |
