"New" Paul Simon titles at HDT, Pono, AS

just posted this in its own thread, but thought i'd drop this here as well: I recently downloaded some Hi-Res Paul Simon releases and am troubled by what I think may be false advertisement.. Are these true / native 96/24? After listening, I think these are encoded at 96/24 but actually 44/24. These sound like they were taken from a CD quality master - not remastered from the original master tape.. wondering if you all had listened per chance? If so - let me know your thoughts - thanks Pono: https://www.ponomusic.com/ccrz__CCPa...864c9832753b9e 7Digital: https://us.7digital.com/artist/paul-simon/release/the-rhythm-of-the-saints/ Acoustic Sounds: http://store.acousticsounds.com/d/10...24bit_Download It's strange because HDtacks doesn't even have these titles.. -
