I signed up for a Qobuz Sublime subscription this year and have been taking advantage of their high resolution promotions. I’ve been very happy so far with the quality of the downloaded files.
However, for older recordings, like many, I’m often buying albums I’ve already bought multiple times in other formats and resolutions. As such, I’m mostly interested in the latest or best quality remasters and formats.
I’d like to see if a Qobuz specific thread for notable/new purchases would be useful.
As an example, I stumbled across a Black Sabbath remaster that sounds quite good so I purchased it. I notice the same album was remastered in 2014 also and as you’d expect the 2021 file sounds better.
I have most of the Ozzy led Black Sabbath collection and would like to get the rest of the catalogue in high resolution but I don’t want the 2014 versions if they plan to remaster them again. So I’m holding off for now. Do the labels have a schedule they publish for upcoming remasters? That would be nice.
Anyway, is there a particular album you recently purchased from Qobuz that you can recommend? My tastes are highly varied so feel free to offer up your recommendations as perhaps others would find it useful.
