THAT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE to be remained released, the RIAA encode curve cuts all the bass and boosts all the treble to such extent that the sound wouldn't be horrible, it would be clearly defective in nature and would be pulled from market immediately if ever done like that, if one ever even got that far.
I think what you might be talking about is some CDs were mastered in error using " sweeted for lP" EQ'd tapes instead of straight tapes in error, but this wasn't riaa encoding in error, just the wrong tapes. -- J.C.

There have been CDs made in the past using tapes which DID have the RIAA curve applied. Crappy, crappy.... horrible sound results. Gladly, that kind of error is/was VERY rare back in the early 80s. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
