New Computer Based Audiophile Site
Hi everyone, I just started my own site that is all about music
servers / computer based audiophile products and music. I am a huge fan of tube gear and music mastered on tube gear (Analogue Productions releases) and everything vinyl as well. But, with the new high quality instant downloads available in 24 bit / 96KHz quality, the world is changing. The sight just launched November 20th, 2007 so please don't knock me for lack of content yet. I am sleeping very little trying to get things going. I have setup forums and hope to have a community that can fill a huge gap on the web right now. There is very little consolidated information about computer based audiophile gear and music downloads (24/96 etc...) Please consider posting in my forums and let me know if you would like to write any articles or reviews to be published. Thanks everyone! http://www.computeraudiophile.com Chris Computer Audiophile | Turn Down The Silence |

Please tell us where someone can download uncompressed audio content from any record label, I'd settle for just 44.1 khz wav files let alone the 24b/96k you speak of. I think you are mistaken that audiophile content is available for download. All I have seen to date is mp3, wma and aac which are all compressed, and a limited selection of content consisting of mostly pop music. IOW very little jazz, classical, and vintage recordings, even compressed are available. But maybe more folks like yourself will make the labels realize that there is a market for uncompressed or lossless compressed downloads. |

Try: http://www.thephiladelphiaorchestra.com/stash.asp They offer these files as EITHER 256k mp3 or FLAC. The FLAC files are uncompressed 44.1/16-bit. They sound great. |
