So, do the new vinyl releases have the sound of a digital recording, or is the problem with digital really the compressed product that is delivered to the consumer?
CD's aren't compressed. Except for any old-school compander-type crap they may have felt compelled to use. But their sample size and sampling rate are borderline for their intended goal, so if the recording is not very carefully done they can suffer unnecessarily. If recorded on better gear the required re-sampling offers a lot of room for subtle error. My one Sheffield DTD recording really sounds good, and my playback gear was never all that great. _Those_ are the gold standard for analog playback, so far as I know. I have a few other DTD's, too. I think a well-done CD can sound extremely good. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
