Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

"Utter dismissal of the original invention..." Not me, not for years anyway.

Somewhere around fifteen years ago I discovered CD "degaussing", and it's gotten better ever since. Nor was I loathe to admit, I had been wrong about blaming 16/44 PCM. Lots of the usual suspects jumped on me with their Aha! moment, but the fact remained, I told them, that without ameliorization CDs still sound like crap. Then perhaps five years ago I discovered that a well-treated CD sounds as good as, or better than, the equivalent SACD. Well!

That said, most of the vocal supporters of the medium have settled for the shrill, edgy sound they somehow have come to enjoy, and therefore defend 16/44 PCM to the end. They are completely wrongheaded.
