Beware poor sounding media


One of the hardest things to accept as an audiophile is an inferior sounding CD, stream, record etc. It’s too easy to personalize it as a flaw in the system.
ideally, we should accept each track on it’s own sonic merits, good or bad, and enjoy the music thereon. But, too often, it can destroy the enjoyment of a listening session and blanket the experience.

Anyone else experience this?

Just the other day a Synergy 'Cords' album was delivered to me. Two things. The recording itself was pretty impressive, BUT the album has two warps! Got a replacement on the way. 

 FWIW, the very first time that I bought this album it was on cassette. Turns out the tape was stretched! In my case, the CD copy wins just for making it through alive.
