Right place for an ADC question?

Here's somewhere else to look: https://www.solidstatesound.co.uk/index.htm There are even networkable devices available -
After a favourable review in Stereophile, I decided to purchase the download of Spangled by Gaby Moreno Van Dyke Parks. The Nonesuch web site describes the download as 96/24 but I noticed that it was surprisingly quick to download. When I checked what I had downloaded, it was 44.1/16 which is not what was expected or advertised. This is misrepresentation of the product offered. I sent off an email to Nonesuch via their web site explaining my concerns and they final reply was to blame me for not downloading it correctly. This should not be allowed, it is fraudulent. Is this the only download from Nonesuch with this issue? Have others seen this issue? I am not a happy bunny and very disappointed to be treated with so little respect. I strongly recommend people do not use this fraudulent company in future.

I've also noticed that the latest version now correctly handles must-artist compilations. it was a bit of a mess before.

Sound advice Claude, thanks.

Just found this thread today. I have an Oppo 83 and use a decent surround processor so a OPPO BDT-101CI will do me just fine as a replacement I believe. Will the 101 work regarding ripping SACDs? I have read the complete thread and not found any reference to the 101 Thanks, Terry

Plus you get to own something physical which doesn't get lost when your hard disk goes down -

They only seem to acknowledge the issue and do something about it when somebody complains. Seems their business model is to do no testing themselves but let their customers do it for them. -
Derek and the Dominos Layla - at HD Tracks in 24.96

Retakes and stuff like that. Are they worth the same price as the stuff on the 1st CD? I'm not too sure. Trouble is, they don't let you buy the tracks on the 1st CD only if you want them all. -

Had a quick look in the morning and I'm not impressed by the tagging. Two track 1's for instance but no use of the Disk tag. The file names all start with a numeric which bears little relation to track numbers Seems I've got to spend 1/2 hour sorting it out now
