I run a recording studio so we see this sort of comparison all the time. I get asked, 'why do you have all this old analog crap?' all the time. I just sit them down and play the difference.
In a direct transfer --no remixing or remastering-- of an AAA, 1/2", half-track, 15/30 ips reel master...which product/process, Redbook CD or DSD64, would yield the nearest fidelity to the source/master tape?
Would the answer change if the evaluation were made in a 64-bit DAC and DSD128 environment?
