Um, even amongst the so-called audio-snobs, there is plenty of disagreement (as I mentioned earlier this week: which is better, coax or fiber? is a $100 speaker cable better than Home Depot zip cord?).
Relax, you have substantially "better" equipment than I do, and no one has chased me out of here. It's all about the music: if you can hear a difference, good for you. If you can't, you can save a small fortune on equipment and buy more cd's. (I won't even get into the abstract stuff: if recordings are mastered to sound 'right' on standard home equipment with non-flat response... wouldn't you want a non-flat system so that you could match what the engineer wanted you to hear?) Ie, if most home systems have a dropoff at 16khz, and yours doesn't... won't that be the same as having a peak at 16khz? What sounds 'better' is entirely subjective and it may not match what the engineer of the recording had in mind, but they don't shipping 8 or 16 track master recordings out so that we can mix them ourselves. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22009 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
