Agreed. There is a lot more low end in the processed but the loss of
the high frequencies is distracting.

Well, I wanted to make clear modern mixes on consumer materials are
often messed up, and discuss that. I f your monitoring makes all the CD
and well known blurays and such sound fine to your ears, fine.
I'm heavy enough edified univ. EE with serious theoretical physics
knowledge, and well developed practical skills, so I don't feel I need
new theories, when the 1d and 2d year Electrical Engineering university
years offer a complete, mathematically closing, and theoretically
accurate theory for electrical network theory, signal processing,
information theory and such. I mean I know what an FFT will do with a
"normal" electrical signal transient, what poles and zeros are and do,
and what the difference is between a control loop and a filter+delay,
and that such systems have certain mathematical properties.
I don't know about you, but I had absolutely great records and radio to
listen to as a kid and teenager, and I can't stand the garbage that
nowadays is made of the materials of good, serious musicians (which I am
too), so that's what I wanted to discuss, and to an extend offer
solutions for, but apparently that is more emotional and personal for
some people to be able to neutrally communicate about.
You mathematically oriented language doesn't do justice to the basis of
EE, which is much harder than you appear to think, those different
signal paths can be followed I think by audio engineers with some
experience (and have to an extend), and there is such thing as
"loudness" perception and studio processing that can work with it. So
apart from some "new" boys and girls wanting to use music for power
instead of enjoyment, there's a whole world of studio processing, and
some of that I'm quite accurately aware of, so maybe that's interesting
for some people to hear about.
I suppose if I'd put a schematic of a digital TV before you, you might
be tempted to think it's a mess, but hey...
