"Eeysore = total NUT CASE "

The earliest CD players were utter ****E. Esp the CDP-101. Truncated
reverb tails is what I remember especially.


You mean fading out the track early in the CD mastering to try and stop
you hearing the tape hiss?


NO.

I mean failure of signal resolution compared to CD (on a Sony CDP-101)
with
vinyl on my Garrard 401 wirh Ortofon RMG309 arm and M75E II cartridge.



** No turntable will play a CD and no CD player will play an LP.

Get the point - ****wit ?


And (in my mind) you'd have to be DEAF not to notice it.



** You have to be brain dead to wildly assume that CDs and LPs derived from
multi-generation tapes and "re-mastered " by god knows who on god know what
can be used to make such comparisons.

Totally invalid test method, used only by the worst sort of audiophool
cretins.
