firedog Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Haven't heard them all. The 24.96 that came out in 2012 is good. This is 12 tracks, not the deluxe version or the 40th anniversary that has lots more tracks. I think it is still available. It doesn't seem to be volume compressed. There's also an SACD version. I know nothing about it. Main listening (small home office): Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments. Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three . Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup. Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. All absolute statements about audio are false Link to comment
miguelito Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Thx @firedog. I purchased Qobuz’s 24/192 version which sounds pretty good. I am particularly interested in the MoFi SACD version that was release at the same time the 1-step LP was, I think. Anyone with this version that can comment on it? Thx.

miguelito Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 BTW, I can rip SACDs (with a PS3) so SACDs are definitely included in the question. Thx.
