87.228.164.109
I have just downloaded a 24/44.1 Barb Jungr and a 24/88.2k Ravel in WMA from the Linn site. Both played perfectly with Foobar ASIO out. On the 88.2k file, I had to increase the ASIO buffer size on my AES16 to 512k (from 256k).The Jungr disc doesn't sound 'studio quality' whereas the Ravel is excellent, with no hint of digititis.

So where does one find this download?
David! You can KILL a man with a chopstick!!!
I mean musicianship and quality of music-wise?
I used to play some of those pieces, and I like the interpretation, but it's not world-class. I can't remember who does a better interpretation.The sound is pretty good, but not great. It is not a hi-rez showcase and doesn't have that much more ambience and power in the mix than a good 16 bit.
I just got some CD's I bought on Amazon for like $8 that ARE world-class performances, mainly Beethoven Violin convertos, Brahns Quintet, etc. Time to research some Ravel..
You can actually get on the site and listen, or buy a track to see how it sound.I did this at first, and liked the master quality of the recording. As I said, no digititis. Most 16 bits do.
I bought the album, I have a Naxos of this music too, and it does sound a bit 'digital' which I find on a lot of Naxos discs.I don't get digititus from my system on GOOD 16 bit ;-),
No Lang Lang, but technically (music) very good.
