The Nordic Sound - 2L audiophile reference recordings
Hybrid SACD + music Blu-ray
5.1 SURROUND + STEREO produced in DXD (Digital eXtreme Definition)
The hybrid SACD looks like a normal CD and plays on all standard players and computers.
From combined musical and audiophile criteria we have compiled a collection of the most excellent and impressive recordings 2L (Lindberg Lyd) have to offer. Most tracks originate from DXD (24 BIT / 352.8 kHz), presented now in 192kHz on the Blu-ray and pure DSD on the SACD. This two-disc set contains both a Blu-ray and a hybrid SACD featuring the exact same music.
Two of the albums presented in this compilation is nominated for the GRAMMY Award "Best Surround Sound Album". Discover what the unique Nordic Sound is all about!
Blu-ray is the first domestic format in history that unites theatre movies and music sound in equally high quality. The musical advantage of Blu-ray is the high resolution for audio, and the convenience for the audience as one single player will handle music, films, their DVD-collection and their old library of traditional CD. What we are seeing is a completely new conception of the musical experience. Recorded music is no longer a matter of a fixed two-dimensional setting, but rather a three-dimensional enveloping situation. Stereo can be described as a flat canvas, while surround sound is a sculpture that you can literally move around and relate to spatially; with surround you can move about in the aural space and choose angles, vantage points and positions.
