That other thing mentioned was " the original multi-MB sampling rate of Sony hi-res format(SDS) was found by TAS to be superior to analog".

I just wanted to mention a few things here about digital. One well-respected reviewer says that he has "a 1985 chip, no oversampling, no digital filter, and a proprietary tube-based, re-construction filter at the end. I know that someone here reco...

Plato, I am still waiting on your response. You really helped me with the Signal Cable Silver Resolutions for the Nuforce. I trust what you say.

"The old interminable and unresolvable LP versus digital car stereo argument." Lkdog, that's great! I didn't chose to put the forum here. Maybe the use of the word digital caused it to be put here?

Let me disclose my personal relationship with Ori of Oritek Audio. I went to his house to purchase a pair of X-1's. I spent 3 hours listening to his system while waiting out rush hour. I then emailed him a bit, mostly criticizing his X-1's in my s...

What I meant Boa2 was that the top ten interconnects were going to heavily favor older ones that have been superceded recently. I wanted to give a balance to someone who might use the answers for a purchase decision.

I guess these discussions must get personal? Boa2, I like how you signed yours with Aires. It seems like if one doesn't like the message, we kill the messenger? I'm not sure I'm putting out a message. I also think that it's about time a discussion...

Tvad, I want to apologize to you. I believe my last post short-shifted you. You have very interesting things to say. It's just, with me, sometimes, it triggers an inappropriate response. I would guess that you are a Scorpio, but I've lately struck... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Yes, actually it's been more than 15 posts. I want to point out Oneobgyn's post on Audiogon about his system. I couldn't get it here, so maybe it requires looking up. I'm suprised by the cost of his Wilson X-2's, which are over $100,000. Anyhow, I...

"Digital is very linear and its dynamic range is and can be disconcerting to listeners." D_edwards, you hit the nail on the head for me. Maybe that is what causes my tension when listening to cd? BTW, I might have an opportunity to hear a super hi... 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
I want to apologize to Lkdog. I never get the motives of people right, and there were hidden motives in my asking the question. First, I heard a cd by Connie Dover,"Last Night by the River" at Ori's, of Oritek Audio, house that was listenable to m...

Don't get mad at me for posting this. Although I believe that I should do research in the area of the best cd players for the money, I have a problem. In many cases, I get tense listening to cd. I know that many people don't, so I'm not sure that ...

Tvad, I appreciate your heads-up about my writings. I can see it from your 12-step comments. I may deviate a little bit from the main subject from now on, but I can see that it is harder to follow what I'm saying when I use parenthesis. 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Tvad, heck, no one understands me anyhow(Do you think it would help if I used less parentheses?). 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
Isn't audio just a suspension of belief(or is that disbelief)? Whatever does this provides an escape from our day-to-day life. Analog(for me)does this and(this opens up a pandora's box) also changes the brainwaves. I am interested in digital doing...
