RealityCheck with Linear Power Supply Modification
If one were to express the difference between duplicates made with the RealityCheck (RC) and original compact discs (CD) in percentage terms, one could argue that the duplicates are 20% better than the originals.
If one were to express the difference between duplicates made with the RealityCheck with Linear Power Supply Modification (RC/PSM) and duplicates made with the standard RealityCheck (RC) in percentage terms, one could argue that the RC/PSM duplicates are 40% better than the RC duplicates.
Yes, there is a greater difference between the RC/PSM and the RC duplicates, than there is between RC duplicates and the CD.
Differences:
Harmonic structure is greatly increased. The insides of drums and wooded instruments are more apparent as are the inflections in a singers voice.
Transients are quicker and have much better attack. Drum hits have much more snap and definition.
Pace, rhythm and timing are improved.
The digital glare (digital screen) in front of the presentation is greatly reduced. The presentation is less aggressive, more relaxed, and less chaotic.
Vocals sound more natural and there is less emphasis on sibilants.
Cymbals stay back with the drum kit rather than projecting out to the front of the soundstage.
Images are more distinct and there is less smear.
There is greater space between images on the soundstage.
The bottom line is that one gets a much better appreciation of what the musicians and vocalists are trying to get across. The presentation is simply much more real and emotionally satisfying.
