Why am I, a cd neophyte(but not a digital neophyte), the one who has to say this? It's about volume(and I thank Hi-Fi Answers for this). When it comes to volume and cd, I'de suggest that if you get digital glare that you lower the volume. You see, volume is not how you think it is. Maybe my APL Hi-Fi Denon 3910 is super-sensitive in this area. Anyway, do not use volume to highlight something that you know is there. How's that? Each disc, or record(with analog, it's not quite critical-in a way) has a certain volume that makes things correct. This may involve compromises. You may know that the highs include something that the correct volume doesn't do justice to.
I've found the cd player for analog lovers
I'm the guy who said on Audiogon, "When is digital going to get the soul of music?". Let me just say that I've found the digital player that rivals or beats analog. No, it is not $40,000. Please read me on my thread! I do believe that there is much variability with cd's. So not all cd's are created equally. The player in question is APL Hi-Fi's Denon 3910. I've found that volume is really critical. Alex voiced his player while comparing it to analog. Let me just tell you that I used to get tense from cd. I'm not saying that all cd's will sound great. For instance, my friend bought a cd from Walmart that was Van Morrison's greatest hits. It was hard to listen to through the digital haze to the music on Alex's $19,000(not your price)cd player.
