You Made My Point!!!!

"Equating the DCS upsampler with the brilliant pebbles is stretching things a bit."

Even the DCS people themselves haven't been able to come up with a rationale of why ASRC might sound good. It's a technological black hole just like Brilliant Pebbles is a technological black hole.

In fact, I brought this up because my very point is the while equating DCS' upsampler to Brilliant Pebbles may seem like a stretch to a lot of people, technologically speaking, I really think it isn't a stretch!! Expressly because the ASRC is also a "black hole" technology.

And since my equating DCS' upsampler to Brilliant Pebbles is perceived to be a stretch, that's where I think the ASRC comes a lot closer to being deceitful technology!!! For unlike Brilliant Pebbles, it has not raised flags with a lot of people in regard to possibly being "snake-oil" technology.

Not to mention, for how phony Brilliant Pebbles might be, at least unlike ASRC, it hasn't really **hurt** sonics..... Nor has it set back the art of sound reproduction.

So if anything, DCS' upsampler technology may actually be **worse** than Brilliant Pebbles!!
