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

Your observations are the starting point.

I've only heard hi-rez formats at shows, and have not liked any of them.

People whose audio judgments are more exact than mine have told me they also have not heard music from hi-rez sources.

I'm trying to comprehend the conflict between these and observations like yours. Hi-rez formats deliver more information, so, if audio systems could resolve the extra information, why would everyone not prefer hi-rez? In my experience with tweaking my system, I keep finding more honest detail in the Redbook format as I reduce the effects of vibration and RF noise. Perhaps at this point, I should try hi-rez, but the cost of a player comparable to my Wadia 861 is daunting.
