CD Sound??


I have noticed that the CDs that sound the best in my system are all black like P. Barber Modern Cool, Sarah McLachlan Surfing and Yo-Yo MaMa SACD. My hearing or do the black CDs sound better? Where can I get CD-Rs to use that are black?

Thanks and Happy Listening

No, black CDs don't sound better. It's just a coincidence that you happen to like the sound of several that are.
That Genesis article is clear proof that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. I tremble to think about what his first draft said, before people started trying to straighten him out (not that they got very far).

The most revealing sentence in the article was when he said that "many brands of media...did not play in my transport." That would suggest to me that his transport is defective, although I suspect it's more likely that he probably just screwed up the burn, and then blamed it on the disk. Trust him at your peril.
