.. And noise fresh from the studio :) but that said there are exceptional exceptions from the norm AIX records or 2L etc , but these audiophile brands seldom have the music you crave , but sometimes its very good . I miss the 5.1 discrete 24/96 mutichannel DVDA has . That was something it really made a big diffrence . But then again the recordings are fe and far between and many are more showcase than real music . (AIX do have some real music with real artist in this format too ). I have something against "audiphile labels" special daft but well sometimes well recorded music with 2nd tier artists . And sometimes just another sound like stockfish record reverb dynamics and a lot of bass sound impressive but its a sound effect. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
