All three recordings are super duper musically and sonically. The Oscar Peterson in particular has blown me away, a perfect presentation of his slinky gifts!

@Phoenix - I have a question. I note you are offering these recordings as 24/176.4 kHz files. As a Devialet user yourself, I am surprised that they are not offered as 192kHz files? The reason being that the Devialet is optimised for 192kHz, and the ADH core runs at 40bit 348kHz (384 being 192 x 2).
Is there a specific reason you opted to master / offer files at 176.4kHz?

Dear Confused,
Thank you for your very interesting question. We've always recorded in multiple of 44.1 KHz, the frequency rate of the CD. It avoids some possible problems when you're making the digital files to press on CDs. That's why we prefer this rate, Devialet engineers confirmed that the ADC worked perfectly at 176.4 kHz.

I've heard there will be soon another event in London. Hope to make it this time
