How can you tell the quality of the recording?


When you listen to music with CDs, how can you tell the quality of the recording? In other words to find out the quality of the recording what do you have to focus on? When I listen to CDs, I often notice that the recordings are not good.

Thanks.

I listen to the highs. Bad recordings are harsh and brittle and make me want to turn down the volumne.
Just keep focusing until you hear something bad. It's gotta be there. After all, they are CDs. Sometimes I find it difficult to ignore all that music when I'm focusing. Happy Listening
