Hi,

I am new at Society of sound……and running NAD 85 Watts amp with B&W CM1…..

1……For my $2500. worth system, can anyone tell me if I will hear a difference between
the 16 and the 24-bit FLAC….or do I need to get a state of the art system to really
get the most of a 24-bit FLAC……
2……For my 3 months trial period, I could not get 24-bit…..then I have downloaded 16-bit FLAC
which I understand is a regular market CD quality……….
3……Not being comfortable with computer, I dare not adding a codec for WMA……..is there a
way to download Winamp without importing all my music from ITunes since I want to
keep my ITunes suscription?

Thank you for reading me!

Hi Susanna
I have replied to your PM. Thank you . As I had said, the voucher from the CD seems not to get accepted. I can’t get over the log-in at all “code is not valdi”
Thanks for your support

Hi,
To access the 24-bit files you need to put your given voucher code in the appropriate box.
This will take you through to Your Music page.
Click on the ‘download’ link and you can scroll down past the thirty second samples to
the ‘download all tracks’ link and choose your preferred format.
It doesn’t matter if you have been a trial member, you can still access the tracks.
If anyone continues to have problems, please email me on sos@bwgroup.com
and I will get back to on Monday.
Thanks, Susanna
Bowers & Wilkins

Well, I do have the code from my Peter Gabriel Spec. Ed. and still cannot get the 24bit. It says use a valid code. Well, that’s what I do – at least that’s the code printed on my album darn ..

The album sounds great with intense, absolute stunning interpretations!

Please do it again …….

I am sorry, i bought the iTunes LP at Peters 60th, 24th of Feb, and now i am very unhappy to get this from B&W. Too late. Please never do this again.

Peter,

This is just amazing, it brings the two camps of music together in such beautiful clear harmony.

You can feel the love the artists, techs and arrangers have for the music, the realness (if that is an acceptable word) and immediacy leave one breathless.

More please…..
