    Default Does anyone have any of the 24bit B&W Society of Sound Spiro FLAC tracks?

    Hard drive failure. Everything recovered apart from these tracks which I can’t find anywhere.

    B&W released a number of tracks from the band Spiro for free as a demo / intro to 24bit Audio. Massive fan but can’t seem to find replacements anywhere. No super audio CD’s or 24 bit albums from them to be found anywhere. Sent emails to B&W / band website offering to pay but everything to do with this programs seems lost in the ether.

    Never heard of a band Spiro. The only band I have in my list of a similar name is Spiro Gyra.

    Cheers,

    The Flac download on bandcamp is 16bit.

    The content B&W released under society of sound was 24bit but can't find it anywhere. Not convinced I'd be able to tell the difference but still just wanted the originals.

    Yes I believe I do. Spiro - Live in a Box from the B&W Society of Sound. How can I get it to you?

    Amazing,

    Can you throw them onto one of the cloud storage platform like Dropbox, Google Drive, Box, Microsoft one drive etc and dm me the url? All have free signup if you don’t already have an account.

    Much appreciated

    Yes I have both though I'm never used them for share. I'll have to do this tomorrow as we have company tonight.

    Cheers
