| Do CD-R's sound the same as originals Wow EJlif....I must try new methods. The CDR's that I have heard sound as if a curtain was hung in front of the music...with poor bass extension and lack of details. I thought them comparable to tape (without the noise problems associated with tap... | |
| Do CD-R's sound the same as originals NO NO NO NO NO. I don't know if you heard me correctly. NO! CD'R's sound terrible. The only people that believe that CD'R's or CDRW's sound good are the same people that believe that MP3's sound good. | |
