REVIEW

Esther Ofarim, born in Israel and now the most successful folk singer in Germany, presents folk and love songs coming from places around the Mediterranean Sea

Some of the songs are hundreds of years old and Esther sings them in the original language of their time

Though you might not understand 17th century French, Hebro or Ladino (a Roman-based language spoken in some parts of Turkey ages ago), the feeling of love and longing and the sound quality will make you speechless

Recording is unique

Ultra High Definition 32-Bit Mastering!

Ultra High Definition 32-Bit Mastering is a proprietary ultra-high-quality mastering system

This leading-edge system has achieved unprecedented sonority and musicality, reproducing as closely as possible the sound of the original master tape!

This format employs what is currently the highest attainable resolution bit depth (word length) in the professional audio field, i.e. 32-bit

32-bit resolution makes possible maximized, undistorted dynamics, and the lowest noise floor, allowing even the quietest musical information to be heard more clearly

This breakthrough results from the development, through years of experience and application of advanced digital technology, of a sophisticated A/D and D/A processing system

Ultra HD 32-Bit Mastering does not specify a sampling rate; this allows flexibility in meticulously choosing the appropriate bandwidth for a particular recording

The higher the sampling rate -- for example, 192 kHz -- the greater the bandwidth

However, merely employing the greatest bandwidth may not guarantee the ultimate sound

With some recordings, a lower sampling rate -- 96 or 176 kHz -- may offer better musicality and more homogeneous harmonics

This determination requires careful and discerning auditioning and professional judgment

In the end, the human being’s hearing and emotions should be the final arbiter, rather than the print-out of testing equipment or technical measurements

Recognizing these variables, FIM nevertheless tries to use 32-bit depth and 192 kHz bandwidth whenever the original analog master is at hand

Alternatively, if the original recording is on 24/96, the 32/96 may eventually be used to maintain the integrity of the sonority particular to that recording

With this flexibility, First Impression Music believes that preeminent sound is only achievable when the chemistry of the recording, mastering, glass-stamper making, replication, and quality control is right

As always, listening is believing

This recording has been mastered by the new Ultra High Definition 32-Bit Mastering process, which creates an unbelievable sound surpassing other formats!

Playable on ALL CD Players!
