I don't see how the audio quality of a copy can be better than the original. It isn't mysterious, - tinear 09:51:36 09/19/14 (16)

I agree, it makes no sense and yet the transfers I've made. . . - risabet 13:50:11 09/25/14 (2)

Well in your case. . . - Chris from Lafayette 19:52:15 09/27/14 (1)

I don't necessarily prefer DSD to other hi-res. . . - risabet 13:57:22 09/28/14 (0)

The "copy" is bit-for-bit the same - Chris from Lafayette 09:57:39 09/19/14 (11)

Not that simple. All processing involves degradation, extra steps aren't "free." nt - tinear 10:42:05 09/19/14 (10)

"All processing involves degradation" do you mind explaining? - Tre' 11:16:52 09/19/14 (7)

All CD players sound alike. One can send a signal through a series of electronic transfers, including sampling - tinear 15:31:23 09/19/14 (6)

You see, son, it's like this. . . - Chris from Lafayette 18:09:07 09/19/14 (5)

Jeez, Tony - I think you're just adding to tin's confusion - Chris from Lafayette 20:19:45 09/19/14 (3)

You're arguing that copying redbook and changing it's original digital - tinear 21:23:42 09/19/14 (2)

Hey, tin - what's so hard to understand about this? - Chris from Lafayette 00:14:33 09/20/14 (0)

Well and good, but some of us like to try to correlate our listening with "reality" [nt] ;-) - Chris from Lafayette 18:11:45 09/19/14 (2)

Reality is what you hear [nt] - Amphissa 19:40:12 09/19/14 (1)

Well, in a sense - I'm always eager to know what reality I'll hear tomorrow [nt] ;-) - Chris from Lafayette 20:28:04 09/19/14 (0)

Great stuff--I have many of these titles... - C.B. 06:35:25 09/19/14 (5)

Yes - I have the Paray/Chabrier too, but on SACD - Great recording! [nt] - Chris from Lafayette 09:16:17 09/19/14 (3)

The Fete Polonaise on that album is great, however, - vinyl phanatic 14:06:23 09/19/14 (2)

I know what you mean - Chris from Lafayette 14:10:40 09/19/14 (1)

Exactly! That's another one I can't listen to. nt - vinyl phanatic 14:54:10 09/19/14 (0)

Agreed... - Jim Treanor 08:50:15 09/19/14 (0)

Thanks for the post. I mostly agree.. - vinyl phanatic 23:21:18 09/18/14 (2)
