In Reply to: CD media composition difference preference? posted by Rocket_Powered on March 19, 2021 at 08:50:14:
I absolutely believe CD composition can make a difference, big enough to hear within seconds of changing a disc. At a Stereophile show in New York, my friend, George Bischoff went to the Meridian speaker room. We borrowed a copy of Galadiator and copied onto a disc he had treated. The difference took about 3 seconds to hear of which about 2 seconds were because I had to reset my belief system. I know the treatment was an analog(pun intended) of changing the disc material.
The sad part of the story is that the treatment could be done in quantity for pennies. George took it around to CD producers, big commercial ones and smaller ones that did remastered super CDs at high cost claiming sonic superiority. Everyone heard the difference(as an improvement). George wanted a minimal fee for the process but no one gave a damn. No one really cared about the sonic improvement.

- Obviously the metal layer and the clear layer are variables that affect the sound. What else is new? Nt - geoffkait 16:51:23 03/20/21 (0)
