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 :)

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.

BTW, I can rip SACDs (with a PS3) so SACDs are definitely included in the question.
