The 2010 Japan DSOTM is still my favorite. Is there a better one yet?
Quote from benf on June 8, 2026, 4:04 pmI still have the original 24/192 .wv A/B from the old blogspot days. I have not found a better sounding one yet. Is there one? I haven't looked that hard. This thing still rips exactly how you want it to.
edit: I am aware it isn't *perfect* with a minor click/pop or two but IMO the sound dynamics make me not care. They feel perfect.

Quote from benf on June 9, 2026, 3:10 pmI forgot about the fan quadraphonic from the 2000s. I probably have it in an old bindle of dvd-rs somewhere. Thanks for the reminder, I genuinely forget about that particular mix/transfer.
And to clarify, yes, I was specfically talking vinyl rips. Sorry. I really should have said "the 2010 pbthal rip of the Toshiba pressing" instead.

Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon (Japan 192khz) (PBTHAL Vinyl Rip 2010) is the folder name you want to search for.

bennnf should be my username. Maybe adding me as a buddy helps see my files?
The folder above "artwork" should have dsotm.wv and dsotm_b.wv . They are in my "shared" folder. Let me know if they aren't showing.

Quote from Mike on June 13, 2026, 11:30 pmDSOTM is one of those albums that I don't think could ever sound bad, no matter the version or pressing.
