Hi Pat, While in essence I agree with what you said, for myself I have a stepped system of what's "good enough" :-) If it's stuff I like, but was never recorded that well to begin with, then I'm not anywhere near as picky. The few I'd like to record are one of a kinds (from friends who recorded them) or stuff that really isn't that critical, but I would like to have. If I could simiar quality as an iTunes mp4 out of these, I would be happy. Honestly, I really only do critical listening to Jazz. The Rock, Blues, etc. that was/is recorded well is far and few between. Any one those I buy on CD. All else I really am not near as picky or I would be listening to it all on CD not on my SB's.
