Dldennis, thank you for the intoduction and insight into Loudness Wars, it has opened up a whole aspect of researching quality music recordings for me! Being an engineer, Loudness Wars data driven metrics is speaking my language. As Alan Mulally used to tell us when he was running Boeing's Commercial Airplane Division "the data will set you free."
Captain Crunch decoder ring for findind audiophile quality CD recordings
I have recently added the beautiful sounding Primaluna Prologue Eight CD player to my system. I now want to add CDs to my collection that can take advantage of this new world of high quality CD playback the Primaluna provides. The Primaluna highlights any shortcomings in the CD recording process so i need to be able to identify well recorded material. So heres the question, what is the Captain Crunch Decoder Ring when reading a CD "liner material information" that will identify a high quality recording?
