If you want to hear real hi-res audio that will demonstrate how good a Decware amplifier can sound, you are in for a real treat because UltraAnalogue Recordings is releasing it's master reel to reel tapes in direct one-to-one transfers to 24 bit digital Flac and DSD. The files never see a computer. You have never heard digital masters like this so we encourage everyone to please grab this opportunity to download a free one minute sample. This will be the most impressive minute of music in your library, guaranteed.
A couple comments...
A) it's not a simple file you can click on to hear a sample of the sound quality, but instead you get to add it to the cart, fill out your name and address and then download. Normally this would be a deterrent to people who have never met you, but having gone through the process myself, it was painless, fast, no credit card information or other crap, just the instant download.
B) having heard the sample, the above now seems meaningless. In fact I can publicly state that the Flac file is a demonstration of two things; first it is a demonstration of the silky roundness and smooth palpability that comes with analog, better than you have ever heard most likely because other digital files are not done the same way. Second, it shatters your definition of dynamics. It makes everything you own in your digital library sound second rate.
Please for God sakes, download the sample and see if I'm full of crap:
https://ultraanaloguerecordings.com/new/shop-digital-downloads/A lot of people who have never heard Decware think I am, so why not give it a test and see? I'm telling you, for all you stubborn audiophiles who won't get into tape, or even in some cases vinyl, this is must have material. The price tag is a steal and you will not hear digital recordings like this anywhere, trust me. Most of you would easily hand me $50.00 if I said I can make your digital sourced stereo instantly sound nearly twice as good as you've ever heard it, even your iMac on the desktop will get twice as good. You would say sure, let's see you do it... here's $50 bucks. I take the $50 bucks and hand them a memory stick with the 24 bit Flac files -- they plug it in and press play.... 7 seconds later they press pause and say "keep the $50 bucks." By the end of the tape their face hurts from smiling so big.
Literally these specific recordings are the best you can ever hear your stereo sound, and I have a nice collection to compare against so I know it's true.
When I talk about density in a recording, this is what I am talking about. If all digital sounded this good -- well it's impossible because you need musicians that are this good and can do it in one take perfectly and do it live two-track with no effects, no mixing, no post production, no computers, just RAW like you were standing there when it happens. That's just for starters, then you need a zen signal path so pure there are no connectors, everything silver soldered directly and believe me it goes on and on and on. There are no studios that produce music only in this way that I know of, and you can clearly hear it.
