So i’ve treated myself to a half decent DAP the fiio m11 and teamed it up with some Shure Aonic 5 earphones and had a thought to ask the members on this ace forum what album/s they loved in regards to how good they sound production wise?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

More of a tracks than albums discussion but some good suggestions in this thread from last year:
I’m talking about your favourite sounding records from a production perspective. Those records where the engineer / producer just totally nailed it. These for example.
Willie Colon - pure Loft vibes that sounds incredible when played flipping loud.
[WILLIE COLON - SET FIRE TO ME (INFERNO DUB) 12 INCH VERSION]
Art of Noise - I mean what can you say. This and ‘Violet’ by Seal are amongst Trevor Horns finest production moments for me though actually there’s tons more to chose from. …

John Abercrombie - Timeless
Production on both of these feels super spacious… like they’re building you a sonic cave to hang out in for the duration of the album.

Not sure about best produced but Cross by Justice is one of the most dynamic albums that comes to mind
Anything by Trevor Horn!
Yello. My personal favourite 1980 - 1985 the New Mix in One Go. Just stunning
