In Reply to: Re: "Which knocks SACD into a cocked hat." posted by Neil Wilkes on August 25, 2004 at 10:52:22:
SACDs frequency response extends to 100kHz, 24 Bit 96kHz extends to 44kHz. SACD samples the signal 2,822,400 times per second 24 96kHz 96,000 times per second!Christine Tham has measured the high frequency noise between 20kHz - 50kHz to be 5%, that is 10 times less that LP in that range. In the supersonics I really don't think 5% of the signal being "noise" will even be audible.
Also the resolution of a PURE DSD recorded SACD is much higher than even 196kHz 24 Bit, all you have do is listen to one, it's really that simple.
And DVD-Audio even at 192kHz still has a PCM sound signature that CHANGES the sound. Anyone who is an engineer will clarify this for me but DSD was designed to be "transparent" with no sound of it own. Hundreds of tests have been done and DSD sound exactly like the live microphone feed, even Dolby S Analog sounds closer to microphone feed than even 192kHz 24 Bit PCM. The problem with DVD-Audio is it is still PCM, it is a better PCM but still PCM!!!!!
Where as SACD offers a sonic realism that was before only available with Analog tape at 30ips or LPs on the very best turntables. PCM cannot and will never be able to offer this degree of sonic realism, it is impossible. And it is unfair to ask PCM to perform in this matter.
Neil once you get to actually hear a PURE DSD recording SACD you will be singing a different tune.
And to compare SACD to CD PROVES You have NEVER heard a good SACD!
Anyone who has ever heard a correctly recorded and played SACD will accept nothing less
Pure simple logic,
Teresa
