Thanks Steve. And I just want to clarify that the only reason why the MD's
sound better than the CD originals is that I'm using that that Audio Alchemy
"resolution enhancement" Box in the digital path...which "upconverts"
standard 16-bit PCM to 24 bits (like a Faroudja line-quadrupler for digital
audio). If I was doing direct-16-bit dubbing the MD's would sound pretty
close to the original CD (but not nec. "better").
later!
dave :)
