Ah, but the question is then, are HDCDs really better, or is it just that they are recorded better? If the producer is concerned enough about audio quality to go to the effort to make it an HDCD, perhaps the standard Redbook 16-bit version is superior as well? -- Mark Lanctot "It's like, you know, a New Age religion, but with better treble response." - Jon Heal ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32967 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
