But a lot of jazz, rock and electronica is very well recorded, and if you can find digital players which try to avoid dynamic compression (like good 1704 designs), you can reap fuller rewards from them. In fact, my CD player positively encourages me to listen to great opera, too.
I find myself listening differently and with highly discriminating dynamic players, turning it up to "11".

I knew I should have left that "tongue in cheek" remark about Acoustic Music listeners off.Most recorded music either works for you or it doesn't. A lot of music outside of my musical
interest wheelhouse doesn't work for me specifically due to the generally accepted recording
techniques used for those genres. I really enjoy hearing some measure into the "Acoustic" of
the event of music being played in a live dimensional space.I suppose there may be a lot of Competently recorded available music. How "Well" recorded
you find music to be can be a subjective call at best, depending upon how engaged you
become in what you're listening to . ( Hearing more from your CDs can go both ways as far
as realizing whether you care for the recording more or not)In short, I have no misgivings about what I used to think. I simply go with the evidence of
what I'm currently hearing ( I should have just said that first & saved everyone from reading
3 paragraphs , huh ) Have a great day !(Oh I almost forgot to mention ; When I do listen to CDs I prefer to use my player as a transport & send the digital signal out to my Metrum Hex DAC. The Hex normally tells me
very quickly how good (or many times great) a CD may be . )
