BTW, do you have any evidence to back any of these up:

"CD already has a definition way beyond that of the human auditory
system"

"It is pretty much impossible to compare CD to SACD."

"Since the CD there has not been a single development that has
improved
the sound, so none has been widely adopted by the classical
listener."


Go on. prove me wrong in any one of these instances.



You're the one making the claim, so you should be able to back that
claim up. Apparently it's my inability to do that with your lickle
listening test that made you brand me a failure.

So, step to it, Pearce.


This should be
interesting - I'll give you a start for each

1. Classical music is less complex and demanding than modern pop
because....

2. The human auditory system has more definition than the CD in the
following areas...

3. It is readily possible to compare CD to SACD - you just...

4. The following developments have improved on the sound of the CD,
resulting in wide adoption by the classical listener...

Over to you. Just complete those sentences.



Er, no. I don't think you've quite got the hang of this. You made teh
claims, so you have to back the claims up. Surely that's a simple
thing to understand?

The adoption of DAB was the most incompetent technical
decision ever made in the history of UK broadcasting:
