For about a couple of weeks, I now put the Dynamic Range (as measured by Roon) for the albums I own. If the way Roon measures Dynamic Range is arguable (compared to MAAT way of computing dynamic range), comparing apples to apples, to me it is a strong indication of the quality of the mastering hence of the recording, much more relevant than the format & resolution.
In a nutshell:
- below 6dB, it is often barely listenable, all muffled,
- between 6dB and 9dB, it becomes enjoyable,
- between 10 and 13db it becomes excellent,
- above it is exceptional !
The sound quality of this live album from Florence + The Machine is absolutely outstanding.

usually, I’m not the playlist guy but I found these four as a recommendation in Pitchfork- they hit my sweet spot 
They are all around Ambient Jazz, some are from ECM label, one is mixed.
If somebody has an idea how to transfer these four playlists in qobuz that’ll great!
