When Reference Recordings issued the Dick Hyman direct-to-CD, there was a blurb in Wired mocking them for not understanding their own technology. As I recall, what Reference tried to do made a lot of sense. But Wired, who of course understand the digital workld better than anyone else and know that bits is bits, didn't bother to look any further. It really pissed me off.
What ever happened to Direct-to-Discs?
Having recently purchased a new amplifier, I was auditioning it with a variety of vinyl, cd's and tape (yeah, a few of us still have reel-to-reels). While I was playing some Crystal Clear Records and Sheffield Labs direct-to-discs, I started thinking; is there anyone out there still making these things? Any information or leads would be greatly appreciated.
