Post Subject: Verify that you sources do not underperform.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 2/2/2007

Everyone get different sound on own listing room, with a scope of own ability make reproduced sound and own understanding the nature of reproduced sound. We use different media: mechanical recording on records, magnetic recordings, digital recordings on disks, digital recordings from files (completely different ball game), FM/AM reception and whatever else….

I have to advise that it is very educational for the sake or pure “abstract audio” to run the very same material across all media element and to observe the delta between them. It is not necessarily portrays which format “is better” or “more capable” but rather this experiment is a phenomenal test to confirm the each of the source in your playback performers in the way it should. Why it is so phenomenal test? Because if envying else is done properly then all sources should deliver in your listening room the same sound, perhaps very slightly different in quality but still THE SAME SOUND.

Well, it of course will be some minor differences - the differences that justifies a given format, however, the tonal balance, the coloration and contrast, the punctuation and the basic musical phonetics across all sources SHOULD BE IDENTICAL. If not, then some of your sources underperform. Fix them…
