RE: Do new cd players sound better than high end scd players of 10 yrs ago.

I am a friend of Ian Grant late of Grant Fidelity. Some time back Ian's partner Rachel asked me to help her with the Toronto AV CES show. So I brought along my cables my vibration damping devices my ac filters and my modified entry level Sony DVD player, we were nominated three times best sound at show and had several other mentions. Amplifiers were 845 Psvane mono blocks and speakers were Pure Audio Project. So I think that we did pretty well considering how many were running hirez at the show, that ought to be a 5 - 6 times data advantage over a CD. Nothing wrong with CD's. I just modified a new(er) Toshiba entry level DVD player 24 bit 196KHz sample rate it is much better than the Sony I took to the show but Sony have a 24 bit 196 DVD player also I would like to hear it but it does not display track on the box only on screen. I think CD sounds fine. Best regards Moray James.
