It is not so much the special coating (gold) or special plastic, etc. that matters. It comes down to the mastering of the recording. MoFi, DOES, often deliver well mastered, good sounding CDs. But, that is not always the case, at least to my taste, so it is a bit of a crap shoot. I think it is good that they do a bit of fiddling with the mastering; otherwise, we would not have as much choices in versions of each recording.
Mobile Fidelity 24k CDs
Ok soooo here’s my question. Since I upped my amps to the ARC Ref 750s and my ARC Ref 6 to 6 SE. I have been thinking of buying a lot of the Mobile Fidelity 24k cds. What are you guys opinions on them as far as betting sound quality than the standard CDs. Some of them are going for a few hundred. But a lot range from about 40 and up to 400. Now I really don’t plan to send over 100. But even when u are starting to buy a bunch even at 40 to 80$ they really start adding up big time. Oh btw I also have a Rega ISIS CDP that I absolutely love. I don’t do LPs and I don’t stream never wanted to and never will. Not my thing. For the guys that know alot about those Mo Fi 24k CDs please let me here ur options on them good or bad.
