Maybe your dogs ears go to 22Khz, but if your over 20, you probably don't go much past 16 Khz. HDCD is an excellent attempt to get superior sound with a minimum of extra cost. Unlike XRCD and SACD, they cost the same as regular CDs. There are many at $11.99 list. Also HDCD discs sound betteron non HDCD players because the HDCD A/D conversion is superior.
