It was already announced in the summer. Here is the first set of 5 audio Blu-ray discs from TACET. All the discs contain the tone in a high resolution of 24 bits / 96 kHz, both in stereo and in TACET Real Surround Sound (in accordance with the 5.1 Standard).
As on the SACD and DVD audio, this convincing and successful way of placing classical music around the listener - always providing fresh surprises anew - comes across to its very best advantage on this modern medium as well. The more complex the music is, the greater the gains in perception and listening pleasure that are provided by this Surround experience compared to customary recordings. With our Blu-ray discs, we are enabling still more customers to experience this pleasure.
Incidentally: the Blu-ray disc joins the TACET assortment as the fifth sound carrier alongside CD, LP, DVD audio and SACD.
