About the HD-Audio Track
The track you will receive was recorded using state-of-the-art PCM recording equipment running at 24-bit/96 kHz. This track, "Mosaic" performed by Laurence Juber won the CEA Demmy award a few years ago as the best high-resolution audio track. It is a great example of superb music making and state-of-the-art recording. Below is the spectragraph of the track showing high frequency extension to well above 40 kHz. While this doesn't guarantee a great sounding recording, it was at least made using HD equipment.

Welcome to the REAL HD-Audio Website
There has been a great deal of interest and activity with regards to what is and what isn’t “High-Definition” or
“high-resolution” audio. The goal of this site is to try and establish a consensus on this question. We do so in
the hopes that consumers will be better informed about this exciting new area of music reproduction and to
foster the advancement of music fidelity.
There has been a considerable amount of dissatisfaction and confusion from reviewers, music customers and hardware/software companies due to the mislabeling and or misleading marketing of standard definition tracks as “HD” tracks. It seems the time is right for a site dedicated to identifying High Definition audio tracks wherever they are found, verifying that they are in fact HD and certifying them as such.
We look forward to sharing with interested readers and visitors our findings and database of REAL HD-Audio tracks. To get you started in the right direction, simply fill out the form below to receive an HD selection that was recorded, mixed and mastered at 24-bits/96 kHz PCM. Check out the spectragraph of the track and confirm that it contains frequencies beyond that of a standard CD, vinyl LP or analog tape [all examples of standard definition music recordings].
We've just managed to get this site up in time for the RMAF 2011. Please visit again to learn more about our partners and supporters. If you would like to become a partner, please use the form below.
