Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Columbia at it again

2010-04-15 Thread paulduggan

Probably not fair to balame the mastering engineer. He was probably just
doing what he'd been told.

That sounds like -more- distortion.

I don't understand the relevance of the link. It seems to be advertising
material for a device that adds distortion to a signal. If you want to
do that then surely there are cheaper and easier ways than buying a
high fidelity device and then hacking it?

Which distortion are you talking about? Do you know of one which
doesn't detract from the accuracy of the source?

Read: '-far- exceeds -everyone's- hearing range'. Unless you are a
young dog (some breeds) or a dolphin. But hairy ears and water as a
medium bring their own problems.

2010-03-26 Thread paulduggan

There are consumer benefits to owning a powerful sports car that are not
psychological.
What are the consumer benefits of 96Khz sampling? (I'm not convinced
there are any benefits 44.1Khz given good mastering but 96Khz seems to
give some headroom for sloppiness). So why -should- you make the TP
support 192Khz?
