firedog Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Tord Gustavsen Trio, "Being There". Highresaudio, 24/96. I think this is a good album, not a great one, musically. But the recording is wonderful. Good music, great audiophile recording for testing a system. The use of cymbals especially is very varied and subtle. Listening here will definitely tell you if what you are listening to has good tone, resolution, and extension of high frequency notes. If you can hear all the subtle changes, it does.

firedog Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Still love this album. The MFSL version is fantastic. "Echoes" (all of side 2 on the original LP) is an amazing bit of music/aural painting. Turn off the lights, relax, and listen to it in the dark. Nothing like it.

firedog Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 BTW, not trying to dis the Pixies new album; just thought people should know the Redbook is heavily compressed, low DR. Will be interesting if the HDT is the same, or more like the vinyl - which according to the DR Database has DR of about 10 - quite acceptable.

firedog Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Can you tell me where to get this? I did a search and only saw mp3 The group called Safa mixes traditional Persian themes with jazz improvisation in a combination that sounds like it should have been obvious all along. On Alight, Iranian expatriate Amir Koushkani shares his wealth of experience: a classically-trained master of tar and setar (lute-like instruments), Koushkani has a firm grasp of his native music. Clarinetist François Houle and percussionist Sal Ferreras join Koushkani to create a stew of styles that also includes significant elements of Turkish, Latin American, and North African music. "Whisper of Love," for example, has an soft, lilting feel despite its melancholy message. Koushkani lends his slender voice to the piece, a contemporary Persian composition: Where, oh where are you rushing so fast? the desert bush begged the wind.

Good thing I checked this out: went to the record label site and the original recording is in 24/48 which was mixed in analog to DSD so they could produce a hybrid disc. The various sites are selling it at 24/88 (HDT and Qobuz); DSD and 24/48(PSM); ironically, only the 24/48 is the "studio master". Only PSM calls it that, but they don't tell you which version is the studio master! HDT and Qobuz are apparently selling a downsampled version of the SACD/DSD, but at least they aren't claiming it's the "studio master". Anyway I bought the 24/48 and with a discount code it wasn't too expensive.
