It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Techie Question

Well, of course, it might sound better to you just because you want it to. Which is fine. Whatever contributes to one's enjoyment of music is a positive.

For one guy, it is unplugging the connector cables between his amp to his CD player, then reversing them before plugging them back in, because the signal travels one direction better than the other.

For another, it always sounds better when he's drinking a 20 year old cab - he swears it improves his acuity for nuances in the music that he doesn't get with other quaffs.

Me, I swear by the tried and true "smell the vinyl" approach -- the music always sounds better on vinyl than on CD, and I'm convinced it is the smell of the vinyl that does it.

Because, in the end, all the technology for recording and replaying sound is just foreplay. The music is the magic that happens between your ears. Whatever improves that experience makes life better. And you can quote me on that.
