Johnny Moondog Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 "...the TBVO crown for Peter Gabriel’s So is resoundingly awarded to the ‘12 hi-res download." Great article! But by the time I got to the punch line I'd lost track of the contenders. Perhaps due to a late night read. I purchased the collection of 180 gram Vinyl 45RPM Half-Speed Remasters specifically to get access to the the Hi-Res Download Cards that were included. (Peter Gabriel 1, Peter Gabriel 2, Peter Gabriel 3, Peter Gabriel 4, So, Up, Us). I don't own a turntable. Are those downloads the same as the TBVO crown quoted above? Thanks in advance! P.S. those LPs are available for sale if anyone's interested. They've never been played and I never got around to listing them anywhere. “We don’t like their sound … and guitar music is on the way out!” – Decca Records, 1962 Taiko Audio Extreme | Vinnie Rossi L2i SE and L2 DAC | Omega Super Alnico Monitors | JL Audio Fathom Sub Link to comment

Speaking of which, someone over at SHF told me they were sent that ‘16 24/96 download when they submitted the code from their 25th anniversary box. If that happens, make sure you email back Real World and say you want the 25th anniversary 24/48 download. Thank you Josh. I looked closely at the files on my archive drive, and was surprised to find two copies of So. Somehow I'd completely forgotten about this. PG1 (WAVE 24/96, Date Created 04/01/15) PG2 (WAVE 24/96, Date Created 04/01/15) PG3 (WAVE 24/96, Date Created 04/09/15) PG4 (WAVE 24/96, Date Created 04/02/15) So (WAVE 24/96, Date Created 08/04/16)So (FLAC 24/48, Remastered 2012, Date Created 10/15/12) Up (WAVE 24/44, Date Created 08/04/16) Us (WAVE 24/96, Date Created 08/04/16) When I purchased the collection of 180 gram Vinyl 45RPM Half-Speed Remasters with Hi-Res Download Cards, the downloads resulted in .zip files that unpacked into WAVE files. So I must have purchased the FLAC version of So independently, and probably before (?) the Vinyl Collection was made available. Does that look like the correct one?
