Great gear is about musicality even -or especially- when the source isn't perfect. Audiophile 101, really. > I much rather live with those small recording imperfections > an knowing some algorhythm software butchered the original. Since I have listened to the original and the MP3, I know for a fact the original has *not* been butchered. The music still sounds fantastic. At least on my gear, YMMV, etc. > Much rather have HISS on my music than something > tificially "enhanced". How odd that based on the exact same premise -I seldom used Dolby compesation on my CCs- I arrive at exactly the opposite conclusion. Especially since I have never claimed MP3 encoding at any rate provides an enhancement. -- pablolie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21173 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
