RE: For the record

My understanding was the master tape dub, DSD file, vinyl, and RBCD were all based on the same master tape.

The dub sounded 'best' to me. I was literally shocked at how close DSD emulated the analog tape dub. A discernible sonic difference was evident between DSD and vinyl. RBCD seemed woefully inadequate.

Of course, albeit the various formats may have been sourced from the identical master tape -- what occurred thereafter, e.g., EQ, remastering, etc., is unknown to me.

Vbr,
Sam
