Home Digital Drive

Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: What does really good digital sound like?

Define "very close."

I actually no longer believe in an "absolute sound" - It doesn't exist. But Everything is relative to something else.

The major problems I see (have seen) for CD playback are vibration, both internal and external, and scattered background laser light, flowed closely by the fluttering of the disc while playing. All of those things are never addressed by manufacturers.

Many people believe the limit is only 5% away or perhaps 10%, whatever. It's the old cost effectiveness argument, why spend another x dollars just to achieve the last 5% in SQ?

First climber: Wow! What a view from the top of Everest!
Second climber: This isn't the top, we're only at Base Camp.
