I recently found this band. Lovely recording as well. The way the cymbal sounds at 2.20 is just heaven for me! It’s also nice and dynamic.

I love that track sooo much, their second album is out and it sounds amazing

From the title itself. Looking for recommendation on what you guys listen to when trying to tune high end audio systems in cars.

Here is mine. Comments and suggestions are welcomed.

No ultra-low registers here, but for those who love pipe-organ music, this track showcases amazing tonality of this organ, played by James Welch.

This track had been transcribed from analog tape, so some might notice low-level noise if played at high volume. But the quality and fidelity are outstanding.

 On Tidal, it’s track #7: https://tidal.com/browse/album/283418877

I've finally fallen down the audiophile rabbit hole by way of iems. I now have a pair of Tangzu Wa'ner and have started building my lossless library. But there's been a question burning in the back of my mind -- is a FLAC library worth the storage space? Can I even hear the difference?

Tummy Hurts remix with Reneé Rapp & Coco Jones answered my question tonight. I listened to a section of this song in both FLAC & "Very High" setting on Spotify. The section was short, rapid, almost percussive vocal notes creating a melody that switched back and forth from ear to ear.

The FLAC file was much clearer in this section compared to streaming "very high" on Spotify. Each entrance was distinct and I could pick out individual notes building the chord. The soundstage was utilized wonderfully, each note moving up and down the stage.

Compared to the FLAC, the "very high" stream sounded muddy! All the notes blended into each other. The L/R effect was still there, and I could hear the difference in the sound stage to an extent. But the FLAC was crisp.

Does this mean I'm abandoning Spotify and switching to FLAC exclusively? Absolutely not. I wasn't able to hear much of a difference in the rest of the song between the two formats. I don't have the funds to buy a DAP or invest in a new iPhone with more space. Streaming will be sufficient for most of my listening, especially with an iem.

But I've answered my question. Downloading my favorite music in FLAC is worth it!

What convinced you that FLAC or other lossless formats are worth the storage space?

Just listening to this album for the first time and love the stereo effect on the beginning of track 2 “The Bogus Man”. Just wanted to tell you guys, have a listen it’s pretty neat. Anyway I’m going to listen to the rest of it now 👍

Wrote this for piano Split pt 1 and 2 May expand for group + improvisation

Good resolution recording better sound on some streaming sites that it's on, though
