Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: he's not completely wrong ...

So you hold it against CD for forcing us into such a low SR huh?

Well, can't argue with that logic, it's too true.

As to the dynamics, I'm afraid that is also, the BW has to accommodate all of the data which includes the sideband energy in case you want to do something rash like tap a cymbal...

I wish I knew the link, but I saw an interesting video from one of the Stereophile show panels where someone, Keith Johnson I think, was presenting data showing how things went when the upper part of the spectrum was modulated. Poorly. Gross distortion from the largely missing USB.

And yet CD's can sound very good. Sometimes.
