sound quality from CD to CD

hi kendavid:

the 20 bit original lector is a bit more forgiving of "harsh" sounding recordings. i would surmise that you are auditioning a 24 bit lector which is more reolving and hence less euphonic.

you may decide to change your interconnect cable from the preamp to the cd player after the lector breaks in.

cable preference is subjective. i am using maple audio whisper.
