Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Yes, duh Animal Farm by Orwell, not the book '1984'. Damn those dead brain cells! 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Your point about digital tape masters leads me back to the original query here...what is it about the 'read' of CD's, or vibrations, or reflections, or poor pressings, or whatever, that makes the 'mechanical act of a cd', less desirable, to me at ...

Just kidding you Maril555, TVAD, I agree about coloration. Actually, all of audio, regardless of ad hype, is a series of 'pick your color'. Every manmade piece has it's own unique sound. We end up simply deciding which one's seem to be more real t... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Well, we divide there...there is something inherently wrong with music reproduction digital, probably because,as you point out, it is such an approximation of the original event. I wasn't kidding when I said that about a SOTA table, a Zeta Arm and... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
One could say that digital recreation is not analogous to the sound represented though other less manipulated efforts?

Marill555,Physian, what is that exactly? You had me until you apparently misspelled P H Y S I C I A N. 
Extremely high frequency being emitted. speakers?
Need more information...

All audio gear is 'colored', the different flavors are what make this whole experience wonderful. We all pick the 'color' we like, we chose our flavors. What's wrong with Maril stating that his unit (and by extension all Supratek products) had it'... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Thanks, Kijanki,So, in talking to some of the digital 'masters',(people not tapes), their confusion is real in deciding for many years, how to try to improve digital, as it has or had nothing to do with read potential. Some companies in years gone... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
So,We're reading every last bit of information that exists on a cd at this moment? I know you say 'fixed at 16 bits'. Realizing that the picture analogy is inaccurate, but just for example, I use that to make the larger point of potentially more d... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Thanks Mark, and Kijank, (and everyone)Let me give one more lame brained, and half assed analogy.If we're scanning a photo and we have a scanning potential of 'X', then technology changes and we have a scanning potential of 'y' which represents a ... 
Can good speakers take edge off digital?
I think the short answer to this question is, Yes good speakers can take the edge off digital. AND, no, good speakers can't take the edge off digital. Trelja, is making the right point. If we have to use a filter to eliminate 'digital problems', ... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Mark,I think in this example, we should make the general assumption that 'more' IS better. Let's look at it this way. Less would almost universally have to be thought of as 'worse'. If the goal is to gather as many of the 1's an 0's as is possible... 
Is there a consensus as to blu ray sound quality?
Thanks Kijanki,But I am aware of the breadth of variables which effect sound reproduction. "If you want to use it as a transport to play redbook DCs then you'll perhaps get a little better tracking, but you can get it as well with a DVD player." T... 
Sibilance in recordings: your experience the same?
Annoying sibilance is most likely systemic...not break in and such. Do you have anything (power conditioner) between the 'box' and your system? I didn't see any reference to one.Check the wiring to make sure that you have everything wired correctl...
