Among analogue buffs digitally recorded or remastered L.P's tend to generally be avoided.Having made that statement I confess to just having listened to The Beatles Let it Be(Naked)and found it very good indeed.This is because I believe now with 24-bit PCM masters you can press good records with adequate bandwidth,and remember you are always stuck with having to downsample to 16-bit for CD and this has not sounded that good on vinyl.As far as 1-bit DSD on vinyl is concerned I was not impressed with it's very obvious sonic deficiencies and it can't get better than it is.From about 20-bit PCM and upwards should sound good on Vinyl.Not as good as analogue though.
Digitally recorded lps?
I have found several lps in my collection are touted as being digitally recorded. This was considered a selling point at the time. I must say they sound good. I don't notice any digital glare. I would guess they are from the late 70's or early 80's.
What is the deal? Were the original master tapes done in digital. Kind of like a DDA or DAA recording? If so, why wouldn't the faults of digital be apparant?
What does the cognoscenti say about these?
