Is it compression that makes the lower track look fatter or it is
simply more dymnamic? Are we sure they are the same track ;-)?

I do enjoy this.




OK, just for you and with no expense spared, I have uploaded the mono
wavs whose waveforms are in the pic so you can check and make all the
comparisons you want for yourself:

(How broad is your band? They are getting on for 50 Meg apiece!! ;-)

The interesting thing here is that I have always believed that what we
get used to becomes a 'norm' for us (speakers in particular) - to me,
the SACD version sounds comparatively dull/flat/tired/whatever and I
wouldn't choose it over the LP, even if the LP version is *officially*
too quick!!

Now, is that *vinyl denial* or what?

@:-))




Took 2 mins to dl the both of them. I'm curious about what's your setup
for playing vinyl. By the way, lpmono version sounds a bit dirty but a
lot more natural.
So there is no need for me to buy a sacd player and my tt collection
will surely outlive me ...
