It was a crisp autumn evening in 2012 when Alex stumbled upon an extraordinary find in a quaint, used record store. Amidst the stacks of vinyl and CDs, a small section was dedicated to high-resolution audio files, a rarity back then. Alex, an audiophile and a huge fan of Peter Gabriel, couldn't believe his eyes when he spotted a FLAC file listing for Gabriel's legendary album "So" but with a twist - it was specified as a 24/48 update.
The subject of this report is a digital reissue of Peter Gabriel’s acclaimed 1986 album So , remastered in 2012 and distributed as high-resolution audio files in format.

This edition is notable for being sourced from the same 2012 remastering project that produced the So (25th Anniversary Edition) box set.
