And more fun is to watch people reporting superior sound with these Hires versions all the time, no matter how shitty it really sounds. Seems like the group of people that always claim "I need no numbers, i listen with my ears" are most easy to impress with numbers when it comes to BIT²/kHz³ :) One thing that poped in my ears lately is Patricia Barbers Smash. I like her for the cold cool way she presents her stuff. Lately on a HDtracks promotional forum one asked for it, like with almost all new releases from there and the common sense of cause was positive only. The number 24/192 can´t sound bad. In reality i didn´t listen an album suffering that much of sibilance in some songs. Almost annoying. Some de-esser could have done wonders. Strangely within several comments no one recognized that. Must be to hard to hear for audiophiles i guess...
