If you have a DAC that does a good job at upscaling, Spotify's premium 320kbs service actually sounds very good... at times excellent. As with with most music it depends more on how well it was recorded. However, on older recordings, it's not so much the sound but the performance and presentation that draws you into the music. Spotify recommended that I listen to a blues and jazz singer from the thirties and forties named Mildred Bailey. Never heard of her before but boy can she sing. Her shimering vibrato gives me goosebumps.
Only using Spotify connect, am I loco??!!
Hey everyone,
I have a very simple system... some living voice auditorium speakers, a burson audio conductor V2 pre/dac and a kick ass Primaluna Dialogue premium power amplifier (that I've named Blackstar- after David Bowie's EPIC album). Into this I use fidelizer and run spotify connect to my Dac.
My question is am I loco? Do I need more?
To use a metaphor... am I driving my Porsche round at 30kph like a fool? (from NZ so we roll kilometers and centimeters)
To me this sounds great, but I don't have anything to compare it too, so I dont know what I dont know, you know??!!
Thanks!!
