"I cannot count the recordings that I thought sounded really good on physical CD but never sounded quite right either streamed or played back as a music file."

I only recently encountered this after installing a Synergistic Research Phase 1 cable from the Cambridge transport to the Directstream Jr. Prior to that installation, I would have said they were pretty close. Now...not so much. For serious listening it appears that I'll be digging through the CD stacks again.
