| Network Transport vs. CD Transport The 24/96 "Reference Recordings" that you mention are not CDs. That’s just marketing bullcrap. 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Can’t see the forest for the trees.Believe what you want, just have a listen to just one RR 24/96 CD, on a CD player even without a HDCD capab... | |
| Network Transport vs. CD Transport Please don't school me, what I'm saying is not so much HDCD but the 24/96 "Reference Recordings" CD's that you conveniently have not even mentioned. You need the educating not me, you have nothing but a pair of ears that can't tell between a good ... | |
| Network Transport vs. CD Transport There are no CD’s, which are Redbook, that play 24/96 music. Take that up with Professor Keith O Johnson who owns "Reference Recordings" Ok, 6 of one and 1/2 dozen of the other, they are still CD’s able to be played on normal CD player even with ... | |

| Component recommendations for Wilson Audio Alexx kantian22 OP That is the setup your friend runs and you both think it sounds great? Yes both of us and it’s very similar. Just go direct to amp with any of the MSB’s they all do it, it’s the most transparent, uncolored and dynamic way you’ll hear... | |

| Network Transport vs. CD Transport Yes I know it’s on Youtube, but even it shows what "compression (loudness) can do to your music", imagine the difference if it were played to you on a hi-end cd/dac source and not Youtube, with CD bitrate as explained in my last post.. https://you... | |
| Network Transport vs. CD Transport I am constantly amazed by the SQ of some of the material on you tube. All audio on YouTube is compressed (data rate approximately to around 126 kbps AAC) The highest in CD are the redbook pcm releases from "Reference Recordings" their CD’s sound ... | |

| Mark Levinson 39 Drawer problem The Levinson does NOT use bit-stripping to reduce volume but rather uses the analogue way implementation as used in their preamps, multi resistor controled step by 0.1 db step. By far more expensive/elaborate solution to prevent bit-stripping. ... | |
| Mark Levinson 39 Drawer problem Bummer! I was hoping to get it off you cheap.Good work with the perseverance, you got a killer R2R Multibit using 4 x PCM1704k (best ones ever) + PMD100 HDCD filter chip. And with direct to amp digital volume control, it uses an output stage that ... | |
