What's spinning April 2022

Thanks for all of the great recommendations everyone! Truly amazing times when I can start listening to an album from Qobuz/Roon in a small number of seconds after reading these posts.

A very nice and revealing song about how to identify well with a good DAC ,as my Bartok two different voices and guitars and drums at different positions and layers with a very cohesive and relax sound.

New (I think) from Sound Liaison. Quite the RQ/SQ. @BillK, given your ear for piano hammer tones, I would be interested to read your impressions.

Once, the prospect of listening to an album of harp music would have constituted a threat, but I really enjoyed most of this,
Thank you Qobuz.

Ha ha — I thought the same thing until I heard Mary Lattimore’s — Silver Ladders.

I’ll try yours now too :+1:

I think it can still constitute a credible threat. :grin:

Neither will make me forget Ottmar Liebert or Jesse Cook, but each is very pleasant.

Bert’s a great guy. I believe it was dCS’s own David Steven Jr. that came up with the name “Spirit of the Turtle”.
