Tracker Hi Res

[binone]

As this record deserves, there is an audiophile edition with the highest resolution up to date 192/24. Audiophiles deserves this:

Has anybody tried?

I listen Tracker for almost week now solely from this 192 kHz 24 bit files in my best headphones. And boy, it sounds good!

[foma]

It's pricy, but worth every cent. Actually I think it's the best way of music distribution nowadays, everything with this release is just perfect. And it's a deluxe!

Here in Spain is restricted due to territorial constraints and also different releases dates in each country .

I liked Tracker more.

I have the 192/24 version, and it sounds glorious. Clearly a lot of effort has been put into the actual sound by Guy and MK. I know that a mixture of analog and digital methodologies has been used in the recording - but they've sure got it right.

Incidentally, it's been really interesting listening to Beryl, first back in January on an iPad from a low grade MP3, then a 320k through the hifi, now at real high res. There's so much more going in that song than I'd initially realised.

PS you can get it from Qobuz at £18.88.
Could someone correct the title of this thread? Not sure that 'Thacker' is a great name for an album!

What? Maybe we called the album wrong all the time

24/192 is a placebo resolution.

24/192 is a placebo resolution.

...when you're listening it on 15$ earbuds.

[goon525]

I'll grant you that I struggle to tell the difference between 192/24 and 96/24, but there's a clear improvement from 44/16 to either of these. And that improvement is especially worthwhile when the recording artists - as on 'Thacker' - take real trouble with the sound.

Is it worth it to buy? I have Shure SE315 so pretty good quality

[goon525]

Well it's a decision only you can make...but I'd have thought so. There a lot of variables contributing to the sound quality you achieve, not just the calibre of the 'phones.

Of course but not only, human psychology is so powerful to fool your own ears.

Complete BS.
192/24 is even worse than Placebo, the high horizontal résolution is even damageable to the quality of the sound.
Again, this excellent paper says it all:
