    This is the best digital version of Low I have ever heard period. The best detail I have heard on any release, night and day to any other version I have ever heard on CD, flac, wav, and so forth. Almost every instrument & element can be picked out so easily but still sounds natural and not forced. Great staging. Just listen to Be My Wife. Absolutely fab.

      IMO this is one of the best sounding versions of this album you are able to listen to. I think all of the Au20, 20 bit masters are very nice sounding. I especially am impressed with The Man Who Sold The World. It is fantastic. And Low is great here too.
