Ace In The Hole
I've been known to spin a bit of Country Music now and again. Last night I was listening to George Strait and realized his material is really well produced. What I have is before they applied a bunch of compression and comparatively for the genre it is good.
Here's a cut, normally i'm not a big Texas Swing fan but this track caught my attention, for the above reasons plus sound stage, so here it is FWIW on YT.

Re: Ace In The Hole
I don't have any Lovett, what would be a good album to check out if I like more traditional Country like Alan Jackson, Dwight Yoakum etc.

Re: Ace In The Hole
Lyle's more from the Texas style of country in someways similar to Dwight with a touch of Texas Swing. Pontiac is his most acclaimed album though the recording quality is good on pretty much all of them.

Re: Ace In The Hole
Joshua Judges Ruth is one of the best produced albums I have ever heard. George Massenburg engineered and produced. I wouldn't say it is traditional country but it is worth hearing. This is coming from someone who does not care for country

That is indeed an album that is wonderfully mastered & very easy to listen to.

Suggestion: run Roon core on a computer in your house. Laptop is fine. Try roon on the aurender (free demo) and compare. If you prefer roon (it’s the best UI, but sonically inferior IMO), then...
