Tom Petty Full Moon Fever 24/96 any good?
« on: 10 Apr 2015, 03:26 pm »
Curious to know if anyone has got this from hdtracks and can comment on the sound?

I've already got Tom Petty's Greatest Hits on 16/44, so it'll scratch my itch....but if the high rez remaster is generally viewed as a real improvement, I may be tempted.

Thanks, Bob

Might watch Acoustic Sounds. They are coming with a whole slew of Petty in DSD, and they may do PCM as well, but I don't know all yet.

I put a few albums on the wishlist at HDTracks yesterday.  I usually buy music in bunches so whenever I get through what I bought last and then get a sale email from HDTracks, I might pick up one or more.  Not in a rush but I will get some.  At this point I buy more hi-rez than CDs.

Right now all that show are the digital downloads.  Do you have more info from somewhere else?

For what it's worth, here's my take on two of the T.P. downloads.

I actually did download a few TP downloads.  I have all of his LP's and cd's.  I'll stick to the LP's and Cd's.  The down loads are to clinical to my ears.  They sound " to darn digital in comparison with the LP's.  I tired them via my Teac ud-501 and my Hugo.  Same result.
