ABBEY ROAD TAPE HISS

Get a DBX 3bx !

If anyone has a reavealing enough syatem you will hear the hiss on the cd version its there.

the point is not whether there's analogue tape hiss on abbey road. of course there is, as is the case on lots of pre-ddd cd/lp recordings. rather, does it interfere with your enjoyment of the music? one of the things some audiophiles like to do is try through repeated playings to pick up background conversations on recordings like "jazz at that pawnshop." guess if you get off on that then it might be important to listen for analogue tape artifacts. frankly, i'd prefer kickin' back and letting the music move me.

nothing wrong with my front end at all.I just dont like to hear hissssss during quiet passages.color me fussy!

David99, I feel sorry for you. A little bit of tape hiss? You're not fussy, you've lost perspective. Not to get overly personal, but I think you need to re-examine what this audiophile think is about. The first step is to admit you have a problem.
