Supertramp are an English rock band formed in 1969 under the name Daddy before renaming themselves in early 1970. Though their music was initially categorised as progressive rock, they have since incorporated a combination of traditional rock, pop and art rock into their music. The band's work is marked by the songwriting of Rick Davies and Roger Hodgson and the use of Wurlitzer electric piano and saxophone in their songs.

While the band's early work was mainstream progressive rock, they would enjoy greater critical and commercial success when they incorporated more conventional and radio-friendly elements into their work in the mid-1970s, going on to sell more than 60 million albums. They reached their peak of commercial success with 1979's Breakfast in America, which has sold more than 20 million copies.

With Breakfast in America, Supertramp had a genuine blockbuster hit, topping the charts for four weeks in the U.S. and selling millions of copies worldwide; by the 1990s, the album had sold over 18 million units across the world. Although their previous records had some popular success, they never even hinted at the massive sales of Breakfast in America. Then again, Supertramp's earlier records weren't as pop-oriented as Breakfast. The majority of the album consisted of tightly written, catchy, well-constructed pop songs, like the hits "The Logical Song," "Take the Long Way Home," and "Goodbye Stranger." Supertramp still had a tendency to indulge themselves occasionally, but Breakfast in America had very few weak moments. It was clearly their high-water mark.

Thanks. I'm swamped id high-res d/l's atm :) Great alternative for the original vinyl.

And somehow DFF works better for me than DSF. These go straight in my foobar 1.1 with the old sacd (0.5.1?) component. Can't get the new one working (0.7.1-XP), I had to install a new Foobar 1.33 but that fucked up all my cfg, incl skin and evering that took me so long to get to my liking. I hate updating, it such senseless labor for labors sake.
But these are fine. Cheers!
You're welcome.
DFF should have less compatibility problems then DSF.
One advantage of DSF however, is it's support for tagging.
DFF was never really meant to be a "consumer format".
It is mainly used in studios that make DSD recordings, and is the "native" format of SACD.
It's mostly for that reason I prefer DFF over DSF.
They both sound the same though.
And I DO miss the tagging heheheh...
And oh, before I forget.....
Try out JRiver Media Center.
It plays DFF out of the box.
And in my ears it sounds better then foobar.
and it even looks a looot better.
(Even if that is not really important)
I don't really care about the data format. It is lossless, so it can be converted. My NOS dac is excellent and it can handle 96kHz. I don't have a dac that can handle DSD and even if it did it wouldn't sound as good as this NOS dac because I would have to go sigma delta, meaning: I/V stage and filtering. And that is where the problem is. My NOS doesn't need any postprocessing leaving a clean (temporal) signal.

I've read about the PS-audio ds-dac but that is $$$$ and I'm still sceptical about the benefits over NOS PCM.
What you could offcourse always try is taking these DFF files and converting/downsampling them into PCM.
Using the samplerate your DAC digests best.
But please use some decent software.
Don't use Korg Audiogate for example.
You won't get the best results.
I've used Weiss Saracon in the past and it is good.
(Better should be at the extremely ridiculous price they charge.)
Do a search for it, and you'll find it here on the Bay.
That's what I do. But I use simply the generic FLAC.exe icw Foobar to 24/88. Thats simply in half. Works like a charm. I can't hear the difference with 176 or DSD (PC with hq dac and tubeamp-HP).

Tagging is a must though, Foobar works excellent with my large database of > 2000 albums. I need to know how to get to the music I'm looking for. I simply can't remember everything I own. I can tell because I buy LP's sometimes that I already own. :Z
Since above mentioned Weiss Saracon si not available here on TPB, you can download Win & OSX version from links available here:

Thanks to the kind help form user "analogkid6103", the song has been found! Although the movie version is probably lost forever, but the single vinyl record version is available.

Performer is "Gulliver" and the name of the song is "Switch" from his two song single "Brotherly Love" (1979)
