Agree with you on all counts. As I have stated before: I am very likely to re-digitize those recording that are important to me as FLACs in due time. First of all I have to see how much storage space I have left after I have achieved my primary objective, which is archiving my entire collection for convenience while mantaining acceptable sound. The current sound level and musicality of the set-up by far exceeds my original expectations, so I am ecstatic about it. My goal wasn't and isn't to maintain identical playback quality - I have been consistently clear about that. I can't recall telling ayone else what they should do when it comes to setting up their system or digitizing their collection, because I am not sure what their goals are. Perhaps I could have gone out to see if I could utterly replace my CD player. I am not even remotely close to that. My idiosynchrasies and preferences are just mine, not asking anyone else to adopt them. On the other hand, I think it's foolish for others to try to judge the results I get without having experienced them first hand. That's called dogma. And all I can say is I am not afflicted by it. -- 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
