Jen Chapin "reVisions" which are covers of Stevie Wonder songs in a unique jazz trio format and have a verifiable provenance of a hi-rez master. I stumbled across this on the Audiogon Sampler "Wake Up Your Ears" download and was intrigued enough to buy the 96/24 download at HDTracks. I'm glad I did. Also Bettye LaVette "Thankful N Thoughtful" soulful covers of songs by an eclectic group of artists on ANTI records, HDTracks. Finally, Counting Crows "august and Everything After in a DSD download converted to 96/24 in Jriver for playback is a great example of rock from an analog master in superb sound, imo.

For classical try the 2L.no website

I prefer the Acoustic Sound download site to HD Tracks because I am more confident in the provenance of the masters they use to make the download files. The files are described more clearly as to the mastering used. Was it a analog master, a hi-res digital file, a cd quality file (why bother)?
