Hey everyone,
I want to purchase a specific track from this album :The Complete Capitol Recordings Of The Nat King Cole Trio | 16-bit/44.1kHz FLAC (it’s no. 8, “DISC 17 OF 18”)
I’ve read that 7digital is legit as a company that’s been around a long time but that doesn’t mean the song version is indeed a true FLAC.
It’s an extensive album and the songs are all there, but how can I be 100% sure what I’m buying is a FLAC and not just an mp3 that’s been converted for example? Thx
If there is no alternative what does it matter if they are transcodes…
But if you want to buy some samples first to try and validate with spek.
Asking 30% more for flac is a no go imo. They should be the same price.
This are recordings from the 40’s. A spectrum analysis will tell you that recordings from that time has no treble at all. Looking at cutoff frequencies won’t help you.
