The Distortion of Sound

@Chrshanl37 - my point is: Harman is marketing a new
"thing" to kids called hi-rez music and telling them
that compression is bad. I happen to agree, but you'll notice
if you watch the entire 22-minute film, which I'm sure you
did, that the people listening to music are actually listening
to it. They are sitting down and listening to it. The kids
will never do that, and my point is that it doesn't matter
what resolution file you have loaded into your iphone when
music is just the din you have going on in your ears while
you're preoccupied with broadcasting every aspect of your life
on a 24/7 basis. Excuse me, I'm going to drink some OJ, then
I'm going to slice some ham, then I'm going to bring my car in
for a service. Boy, traffic is terrible, there's a guy in the
next car that looks like a fish! hahahaha lol. Stay tuned -
Cuz I'll tell you about the coffee I had when I got to the
dealer.

Those pictures are worth thousands of words.

All the best,

The demonstrations at 12:00 are examples of dynamic range compression, not bit compression...all done by the same artists and recording engineers complaining on the video.

Yes, the demonstrations were highly deceptive, trying to show that bit compression resulted in a ridiculously distorted sound resembling severe amplifier clipping.
