"the so-called hi-res downloads which are usually (!) of analog tape originals and not really hi-res at all." This has come up a few times now, even though his reviewers have praised both HDTT Downloads and other Downloads. I have a number of HDTT Files, and they are terrific, though some have some tape-artifacts, and are of there Legacy variety. Many still think Tape is the Best Format. I find John's Editorializing akin to The Curmudgeon Behind The Curtain... The only Hi-Res Download I can think of that I don't really care for is the Grieg Set that was highly praised here, and that's because of the Hall, which sounds cold and hollow, and not really nearly as nice as the recent Seattle Sym 24/96 Downloads. Anyway, I've been finding AA to be a rather annoying experience at times, esp recently. Opinions...? |

HDTT also uses Original Tapes, some are Multi Channel Masters, too. |
