Nonsense. None of that makes them skilled listeners.Nonsense. The recent visitors from Italy are regular classical concertgoers. One of them teaches piano. Another amateur performer has a Steinway baby grand at home. They agreed they heard everything essentially the same as I did. We have been through all this stuff before, as you already well know.
According to TNT's arguments he keeps making to effect that it is more or less the only way to be a skilled listener?

Hello!
Finally found time to put the AD24QS module in an enclosure and do some more ripping.
I'd say I am pretty happy with its performance.
To my ears, it sounds superior to my previous USB Audio Interfaces (Behringer UMC204HD, Scarlett 2i2 2nd Gen & Presonus Studio 26c).
I include links to the uncompressed WAV files for anyone interested in auditioning them.
Electric Blues:
Albert King - I'll Play The Blues - Answer to the Laundromat Blues - VinylRip - 24bit@48kHz with AD24QS
Afro-Cuban Jazz:
Buena Vista Social Club - Compay Segundo - Chan Chan - VinylRip - 24bit@48kHz with AD24QS
Latin Jazz:
Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto - Getz-Gilberto - So Danco Samba - VinylRip - 24bit@48kHz with AD24QS
Heavy Metal:
Black Sabbath - Paranoid - Iron Man - VinylRip - 24bit@48kHz with AD24QS
Black Sabbath - Paranoid - War Pigs - VinylRip - 24bit@48kHz with AD24QS

You mixed up R and L.
I dont own a vinyl rig so cant say anything about the fidelity of you rip but it seems to sound fine. I compared it to my track ripped from CD. My rip sounded more open and without the somewhat bumpy bass from yours.

Your Stan Getz rip sounds very good, have you found any better ripping solutions since then?Hello!
