- What one also CAN deny is that the CD player you buy in a store reproduces
- better music than the turntable you buy (for a 'random' group of people) because
- the sampling theorem (or any other theory concerning digital music reproduction)
- has been proved.
-
- It is the IMPLEMENTATION of the samling theorem (and other theories) in the CD
- player (as well as the disc you play of course) that will define the quality of
- the music reproduction you can get from the CD player.
-
- I agree that it is wrong to say 'the digital theories throw away the music', but
- I can say that 'this digital music reproducer throws away the music', becuase
- it is badly made.
-
- That is a huge difference, and to me it is the only one that matters. I don't
- buy theories, I buy products.
- I don't listen to theories, I listen to products (or rather music stored on
- discs and reproduced by products).
-
- LISTEN and enjoy,
