How can you know exactly what is on the media you are playing without playback equipment and how can you possibly know that the playback equipment you have is playing it back exactly as it's on the media?
It's a circular question without an answer.
You can buy a $50,000 Trinity DAC (OK maybe 50,000? Euros) and some would say it 'reveals' exactly what's really on Redbook CD's but again, how can one know?
For all I know it's all an illusion and so what?
If it puts a smile on my face as I'm listening, I'm happy.
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
