The soundstage was huge, and every instrument was distinct, bright and highly textured. I don’t know if it was my new receiver, or the new remastered CD, but between the two of them Moondance sounded awesome. I fired it up and was blown away by the sound. I needed to not think about hit songs, but just find a great album.Ĭoncurrent with looking for a FLAC album to buy, I was setting up my new receiver to play Spotify and I thought, “Why don’t I play some albums from my HDTracks wish list to see if I can sit through any of them.” The first one I picked was Moondance, and as an extra surprised, Spotify had a recent remastered 4-CD edition of Moondance. Then one of my readers, paintedjaguar, chided me for not having the patience to savor a whole album, and I realized he was right. At the time I couldn’t decide for a number of reasons, but mainly because I couldn’t find a FLAC album I wanted to spend $25 on that I would enjoy listening to the whole way through. As I wrote yesterday, “ Pono, We Have a Problem,” I just bought a new Denon AVR-X1000 receiver that can play 24-bit FLAC files and I wanted to find the best album I could to test out high definition audio.
