@audioman58 I have an Aqua La Voce S2. I have two preamps from Belles. One I can hear it and one I can't.

So as we progress on our audiophile journey one of the greatest rewards is hearing something new in a recording that we've never heard before; at least it is for me.
I have heard Animals easily a hundred times since it's release.
This has to do with the Sheep track.
I placed a new to me preamp in the chain recently. In the last 20 seconds there is a ghost vocal that I had never heard. Originally it was 4 notes which were indistinguishable but clearly there.
Even more recently I upgraded my speakers from Von Schweikert VR4 Jrs to VS VR4 SRMKIII. Now those same notes, while still indistinguishable, have expanded to what seems to be a shepherd faintly directing the flock from a distance.
Has anyone else heard these? I know there are more resolving systems than mine by a wide margin so my question is does it become even more resolved to the point of being able to make out the words?

@jastralfu I start picking it up in the last 20-25 seconds and becoming more apparent 15 seconds or less. |
@ricmci I certainly hope you don't hear it on your car stereo! It would shatter my admiration of my home stereo! |
@seismicfrog 1977 release on Qobuz. Streaming using a Bluesound Node 2i. |
@jasonbourne52 @stereo5 @bojack do you hear it or being facetious? I've recently upgraded to a far better streamer but now don't hear it anymore. I'd hate to think I was losing my mind. In a certain gear lineup I heard it three times. With a different preamp I didn't hear it. When I added a much better streamer that has definitely elevated everything I don't hear the human voice notes anymore. A definite conundrum. |
@motobman did you hear it? How about you @vair68robert ? |
