Well, I just made three more purchases today. Bought three Stones albums. Get Yer Ya Ya's Out - Remastered at 176/24, Let It Bleed at 176/24, and Some Girls - Deluxe edition at 88/24.
So far, they are sounding pretty darn good. You have to love high-res files.Lumin X1 file player, Westminster Labs interconnect cable

We should make representation back to HDTracks and associated sellers when we receive 22 khz-cutoff HD content as this can potentially hide a CD-upsample. At least when we see high frequency content above 25 khz (even if it's only tape noise [or, one hopes, harmonics]) that rules out an upsampled CD-source -- you can disguise 16-bit as 24, but spectral analysis will always reveal a Redbook source or step in the chain...
