Best place to get High...............Quality Audio? I just spend some $$ on high end audio and headset. I want to do them justice by listening to music the way it was meant to be heard. Anyone know where I can pay for music in high definition audio? My genres are rock and progressive trance.
From the forum home page I thought this thread was titled "Best place to get High" I was going to suggest Chuck E Cheese parking lot. Oh and for best sound get vinyl.
I have looked at them. Limited selection. For example, they only have one or two U2 albums. I would like all of them. They dont have anything by Enigma which I am after as well.
Knew very well what I was getting myself into. You dont spend $1500 on a headset without knowing what you are after. I have always had good audio setup for my living room and I want a similar setup on the go, since I will be traveling a lot this coming year. I have been playing CDs through my receiver but since my new receiver can stream digital, I would love some high quality digital tracks that I can play off the receiver as well as on the go.
Have you looked at that player Neil Young created? Supposedly really high quality audio. Pono music player. http://www.ponomusic.com/#home Well maybe it's not all rolled out yet.
That looks really good. I think I will pre-order one. I am concerned about the music library selection though.
It says on kickstarter that the music store goes live at launch, October 2014. I guess we will see soon enough!
I don't think it's too hard to get full CD quality streaming anymore. http://www.marcurselli.com/2014/03/...g-vs-play-music-by-google-vs-rdio-vs-spotify/ Pandora on the Web plays 64k AAC+ for free listeners and 192kbps for Pandora One subscribers. All in-home devices play 128kbps audio, and mobile devices receive a variety of different rates depending on the capability of the device and the network they are on, but never more than 64k AAC+.
16 bit /44.1kHz is CD and is technically < 24 bit / 192 kHz. Going out on a limb, no one over 40 can hear the difference as they have lost so much of their hearing.
Someone thought I got ripped off on a headset without knowing what I was getting into so had to set the record straight. You really dont want to know how much I spent on my speakers!!! :grin:
Yes, FLAC is one of the options but where (with a large selection)? The places I have looked at so far have limited selection.
