Qobuz 5.1 downloads. Any recommendations?

[Robert van Diggele]

Qobuz is offering 5.1 downloads. To this day only in the classical genre, http://www.qobuz.com/nl-nl/quality/...]=24+bits+/+96.0+kHz+-+Multicanal+5.1#results

As I am not familiar with this genre, I would appreciate some recommendations. Are these any good from a performance and mix point of view?

Thanks in advance for advice.

p.s. today I wrote to Qobuz pointing to the Kscope catalogue and their expanding number of surround titles. I received a reply that Q would talk to the label. Not sure if this was some generic response or not. We will see

I'm working in getting some non-Classical titles I mixed in 5.1 released on Qobuz.

I'll let you know if it works out!

Alright! :upthumb

I'm not big on downloads (understatement).. but if its your work in 5.1 and we can't get it any other way of course I'd go for it.

Bonne chance!

Sounds interesting, keep us informed.

Then its just down to fighting Windows 10 to let me burn a DVD-A or BD-A of them, it disabled the drivers for both my burners and graphics this weekend, and it seems to hate the Lightscribe driver! :flame:flame

Qobuz also has a wide variety of matrix encoded material available. I've made lots of public playlists that you can search for - add 'SQ encoded' or 'QS encoded' and the content will come up and you can stream it/or download according to your plan. I wasn't aware of the 5.1 downloads though, that's very exciting news.

I just bought John Adam's 'Absolute Jest' as a 5.1 24/192 FLAC set to give it a go. Price was low and I'm looking forward to trying it tonight. I divide my time between two places and the system tonight is the 'B' system (also known as the one I upgraded from) and generally if it sounds good on that system, it will sound stellar on the 'A' system. I'll report back after.

Seems things are getting rather testy out there. Not only are we under 'notice' (attack?) by the IFPI, now these just came into my email from qobuz... is there a Cure for this?
