If you like classical, the new Mahler Symphony No. 3 from Budapest Festival Orchestra:

is available in DSD64, 128, and 256, but was mixed at DXD, which is the source for all the DSD conversions.

 

I downloaded the DXD 5.0, and it's wonderful - it's also 25+ GB!

 

Oh good to hear!

 

Do you have any other Mahler 3rd's in your library? How does this Fischer performance compare?

 

I have the Zander, MTT, and Chailly on DSD and probably a couple other Redbook versions.

 

I'm a little daunted by the almost $30 price tag too, to be honest. I usually try to find my SACDs under $15.

They're a bit obscure, but most of the DXD purchases in my library are from the Norwegian label 2L. You can sample quite a few tracks at this site: http://www.2l.no/hires/

 

I've discovered and bought some really fantastic music here. My personal faves:

1. Arnesen Magnificat

2. Ola Gjeilo: Piano Improvisations

3. Hoff Ensemble: Quiet Winter Night

4. SPES

 

Have a listen to the samples and see if anything strikes your fancy.

It is only now in my later years that I start getting into Mahler. I used to find him too much.....sugar?  So this is my 1th version of the 3rd. but I will explore some of your suggestions. thanks,

 

Keep in mind, I was talking about DSD versions, not DXD, which is the purpose of your thread. None of the versions I own are available in DXD that I'm aware.

Was there a discount code I missed? I want to get this, but not loving the price.

I’m very impressed with this collection of DXD releases. Excellent sound quality.

i particularly recommend the ones marked “Northstar Recording by Bert van der Wolf.”

Doesn't the artwork already contain the orchestra and conductor information? 

 

Further, if the website allows copy and paste, am I at liberty to use the method most convenient to me.

 

I can't believe sharing my enjoyment will cause me more trouble than not sharing.  If it is the way, just delete my membership to the website.  

 

I think you're misunderstanding. Your original post did not contain a picture, just a broken link. It looks like this on my end:

 

 

Could you perhaps re-post? 

 

If I were to guess, you are perhaps referring to the Spirit of Turtle release of Beethoven Symphonies and Ouvertures by Jos van Immerseel and Anima Eterna Brugge?
