Kinks @ 96/24

[Dusty Chalk]

Does anyone else care about this besides me?

I have the SACDs. glad hdtracks is offering them though.

Hey, can you look and see if they say how they were mastered? If they were mastered in PCM (96/24, presumably), I think I'd be better off going with HDTracks. I have a couple of the SACD's, but never got around to getting all of the ones I wanted.

Cool! I had never heard about this site. The pricing for the albums is ok but I'm curious about the mastering as well. For $15 + I would much rather buy the SACD than get a download but it still nice to have options.

BTW: This is a cool little demo album.

thanksHD09 is a free code for 20% off. It expires on 4/18/09, I got it by downloading their free ultimate download experience sampler on the home page.

I still have yet to come across the Kinks' SACD releases through my usual shopping means, so this is a great alternative in case I get tired of looking. Especially considering I've already got the redbook releases already. Thanks!

Just looked, not sure how they were mastered. It does say DSD all over the cases though.

Sorry to bump this, but I'm very frustrated that HD Tracks has been so slow to develop it's hi rez rock selection
