What of your CD's have good sonics?


I have been amazed at the number of CD's are so bad I can't bare to listen to them on my system. It seems like over half are difficult to listen to. Vinyl seems about the same. I have been buying some classic rock albums from a local used record store and am surprised at how many of them sound bad. Most of the jazz albums I buy are usually quite good. How is it with you guys?

Most are good to excellent.

None are un-listenable.

Different CDs are recorded differently and have different sonic natures to them that you just have to accept. As long as the music comes through cleanly without audible distortions or colorations introduced, I am good to go.
This tune off the surf music box set "Cowabunga"

Shoot That Curl

The song sounds fantastic plus there is over 2 minutes of beach waves breaking sound effects at the end that might fool you into thinking you are out hanging ten with your eyes closed.
