Production and Sound Quality

• Windows/Mac: Foobar2000 (with ASIO drivers) or Audirvana. Do not use the Windows default audio mixer—it will resample the FLAC to a lower quality.
• Mobile: USB Audio Player Pro (UAPP) with a USB DAC dongle. This bypasses Android’s internal sample rate conversion.

If you are sourcing Spirit Bird in FLAC (likely from a CD rip or a high-res store like HDTracks or Qobuz), ensure your playback chain does it justice. A decent DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) and open-back headphones or studio monitors will reveal the album's dynamic range—which hovers around a very healthy DR9 to DR11. That’s dynamic, by modern "loudness war" standards. Album: Spirit Bird Artist: Xavier Rudd Release Year:
