Actually, to add to that, I use SONY server probably 90% of the time for Internet radio. First I was lazy enough to change CDs, then I became lazy enough to even change songs. To make it worse, some days I am lazy enough to turn it on. I would need to get two remotes and click two buttons. What a drag...
Big source improvement using CD player
I borrowed a friend's esoteric dv50s CD player. I could not believe the difference between it and streaming Spotify premium. I am now in the market for a CD player. One thing, the esoteric does not play DVD-R. Can anyone recommend a comparable CD player in the used market that does? I'm looking in the $800 - $1500 range.

"Sorry, but that thing just uses a cheap $20 slot load media disk spinner, like this. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TS-632A-GATEWAY-M-SERIES-SLOT-LOAD-DVD-RAM-DVDRW-DRIVE-TS-632A-GRADE-A-/264547058626?_trksid=p2385738.m4383.l4275.c10 Try going back to a real CD transport, with some cred." Actually the above is inaccurate and tells me you don’t know what you are talking about here. |
It’s doesn’t require rocket science 🚀 to show that scattered CD laser light hurts sound. You can demonstrate it for yourself. All you need is a GREEN Sharpie or any brand chisel tip permanent marker. Paint the outer edge of the CD green. Voila! The sound is better. That’s because some of the visible red portion of the scattered laser light gets into the photodetector and is detected as “real signal.” And the color green absorbs visible red light. The sound would be even better if the invisible near infrared scattered light is absorbed as with New Dark Matter. Recall the laser wavelength is 780 nm, near infrared. I did not create reality. The visible 👀 red portion is only what, about 1/3 of the total CD laser bandwidth, thus when the other 2/3 of the scattered light is absorbed the sound is much better still. Yes, I know what you’re thinking, “But my system already sounds fabulous.“ Pseudo skeptics never roll their sleeves up and investigate for themselves. That’s because they aren’t real skeptics. They’re rather argue until they’re blue in the face.🥶 |
Actually the above is inaccurate and tells me you don’t know what you are talking about here.I think it’s the other way around. Sorry?? but that’s very rich from someone that has these sorts of hearing problems!! https://forum.audiogon.com/posts/1686434 |
