Even if a RG standard were adopted that still doesn't fix all the badly mastered CDs already there.
Think of it as being served a scrambled egg and wishing you had poached instead. Just as the egg can't be unscrambled, a distorted compressed CD with clipped signals can't be restored. A good example in the past would be the many LP records recorded in the 70's when one of the fads at that time on many rock records were poorly recorded, muffled drums and bass. It certainly wasn't a technical issue as there were recordings that got those right. Then, like today, I suspect the producers are far more concerned how their stuff sounds to the mass market listeners than whether they've produced a quality audio product. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36476 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
